The Most Powerful Weapon

~ Frank Solanki

Depending upon the opponent

A wrestling match can be tough

Especially if the opponent

Knows all your moves and stuff

…

So once I was face-to-face

With a very familiar foe

His fans call him Depression

I call him De-Press Joe

…

I can fight that meanie smooth

But that wasn’t how it was

He called upon his loyal pals

To build an unfair cause

…

There was Morose Donald

There was also Negative Bill

There was Ire ‘The Anger’ Rage

And many, many more still

…

It was intimidating

To face them all at once

I found myself uneasy

At my incompetence

…

Then it dawned upon me

My nerves got quite a kick

I got myself a weapon

They thought I’d never pick

…

When they came charging at me

I simply threw a Smile

And all of them went running

For around about a mile

…

Now when they come to fight you

You know just what to do

Simply deploy a smile

Then you thank me too
