SO STRONG AND YET SO WEAK
[president of a housing coop]


I have a mental attitude by nature
That draws me to places of power
In one sense or another
A place, a crown
To lead by simply being
It is an amazing thing to see this
To be in such a place
For I did nothing to deserve any love
I did nothing but fill a gap
In their structure
Someone that they feared in a way
Though fear is not the right word
I did nothing, the silly thing is
They simply did their job
Expeditiously
They did it right
The success was theirs alone
I guess they just needed someone
To just stand up and lead.
