Just the other day I was on my way downtown, and I heard
a noise and quickly looked around. I saw two people heading
in the same direction I was going. They were singing, “The
things for my perfection is in that direction! When they were
close enough for me to see them really good, one of them had
a rag around his head, and the other one had little red
handkerchief around his head. One of them looked at me, smiled
and said, “Mr., the reason for us singing this song is because
this morning I heard over the radio that in one of those stores
they were giving food to those in need. We are so glad about
it that we had to sing about it”. I said to them, “That’s okay,
but what’s the purpose of having on caps like those? They are
okay, but not for weather like this today”. Then one of the
boys said to me, “Mr., if you ain’t got what you want, you have
to use what you got”. I thought about that for a while and
you know that makes sense. If some people had thought about
that a long ago, more of us probably would be home, rather
than somewhere in jail awaiting bond. Good Luck!
