If you can avoid the political theater,
Or ignore entertainers’ lewdness while performing at theater,
And disregard un-graces while at the movie theater,
Then you are better than most.
If you can stop religious mumble spilling out your throat,
Or refrain from judging others as a religious cutthroat,
Or in a battle of words, you don’t go for the throat,
Then you are better than most.
If you can stop putting others in their place,
Or refrain from entering a shady place,
Or hold onto your values even if you lose your social place,
Then you are better than most.
