Man

Man

I know these three guys hanging from a ledge

Each clinging by the use of their own edge

One of them, a swordsmith by trade he was taught

Found life to be something harassed and faught

He was told by others to exchange his life

But, lavished it instead with the use of a knife

Now he’s stuck here on the ledge

With only his might as his edge

The other was scrawny and sheltered

Told him, “To succeed was in the letters”

Always choose the wizard in video games

He always believed intellect was to blame

A lust for emotion was his passionate promotion

But, noone fell lovingly with his brilliant solution

Now he’s stuck here on the ledge

With only his mind as his edge

The last man saw the ledge and said, "No,

I will not use my might to land a killing blow

nor will my mind I use to lie and show"

He climbed up the ledge breaking every bone

But, was the happiest of the three alone.
