A Master Poem by John Carter Brown

A Master

Rating: 4.2


I'd rather be Master than mister
mister's a meaningless word
It's simply a title you're given
To mark you as one of the herd;
A Master controls his own destiny
He's always ahead of the game
A mister is slave to conformity
A Master is proud of his name.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Neither a master or a mister be But a pure and simple human being With frugal desires live contentedly And have a smile on your face in leaving.... Very good poem Sir keep on at it
