You have such a gurgle when you speak

Yet you never clear your throat

And you have an odd power over people

A real presence a bigness a quality

Observable, deceiving, magnetic, inviting

I believe you only halfway know it

Coming and going people watch you

Eyes fixed so firmly we miss your words

People nod in agreement, lost, traveling

If you harness it, what an army

If you market, what an unstoppable dew

You’ll blanket the morning with winning

And you’ll leave the enemy frozen

You’re the new man
