The Few

General faithlessness

The casual or swaying nature of

those reluctant to join

eager to believe the worst

and dismiss the best

the rest

the majority of men

and women count for little

because the great loyalty of those

Few, true friends unbending

Stolid workers faithful and unmoving

There may be a handful in one lifetime

But like one sheepdog amongst the herd

Will save your life

Be herald to your salvation

And rather than lead your frustration and woe

Heal you with their hearts

The laughs the blunt simplicity and the words

Of true companions.
