In Defense of ...



I have some friends,
And I say this in their defense,
That have never gotten those horrid splinters
From sitting on a fence.
Therefore they have never learned
That fence sitters can also get burned
From those on either side of the gate
Those who defend and those who debate.
By the time they try to retreat
It is often too late
And neither side
 their words
       can appreciate
