There's a fine line between diplomacy and wussiness

Intentional Middle Man

by Rachelle Allen

 
Have some gumption!
Pick a side!
Don't be "on the fence."
 
Listen closely.
Do the legwork.
Trust your common sense.
 
'On the fence'
will bring you splinters.
Everyone knows this.
 
Be the one who
stands for justice,
not just a near-miss.
 
One side's right,
one side is not.
Figure out the truth.
 
Acquiescence 
is a cop out,
spineless, dim, uncouth.
 
You can do it!
Be the person
riding the right track.
 
Otherwise,
you run the risk
of ruining your crack!
