POLARITY REVERSAL . I think my parents got it wrong because they were unlearned From childhood I was whipped and starved Just to teach me that right was good and must be preserved But I grew up to find out that I had been wronged For the the real world had its polarity reversed Right was wrong and wrong was right Good was evil and evil was good The innocent was guilty of innocence The criminal was innocent of his crimes The selfless were deemed foolish And the selfish were heroes Blinded by folly I chose the wrong side I wanted good and right to be the ones to preside Good always triumphs or so I thought From battle to battle I lost every fight Until I was on the verge of committing suicide And so I went on my knees and prayed God I have chosen wrongly , I said Nice guys finish last, I cried The response was straight forward and liberating ‘Yours is a different race my son’ E.Y.
