           ONE AGAINST MANY
          By ... Steve Lucky

How can one person hope to withstand
Power unleashed by an angry mob?
Even those who are in command
Know dealing with people is part of the job.
Important facts one needs to catch
When seeking what is true.
Sometimes the right answer does not match
The majority point of view.
One person knows what the world does not
No matter what everyone else tries to do.
Facing a task alone has brought
Many the courage to see it through.
Unpopular solutions are sometimes discovered
So many people try to prove them wrong.
By pure numbers, inviduals can be smothered.
Going against the multitudes the process can be long.
Listening to people is something one should do.
Everyone has a different way of getting out of trouble.
Convincing individuals is important too.
Just one supporter and the odds will double.
