I am a Lefty
Hope you don’t mind
Can’t help it, I do
Belong to the other kind
Long ago in a different time
Lefties were burned at the stake
Possessed by the devil
Drowned in a lake
Thank goodness
Today it’s not as bad
We’re allowed to live
And that’s rather rad
A lot of us though don’t
Make it to old age
But we live rather well
Till exiting left of stage
We’re smarter, faster,
Better than the right
No matter our color
Be it black or white
We are like that
Cos everything’s wrong
Just seems to be right
But that makes us strong
We lefties are inventive
Turning right into left
For us life is difficult
We need to be deft
It’s not just the hand,
But the foot and the eye
That make us different
And nobody knows why
Writing, painting,
All the fine art
Are the endeavors
That set us apart
That glorious mix-up
Inside our stellar brain
Grants us the freedom
To be noble and vain
Only one in ten people
Is blessed with this gift
That’s why we’re so special
If you get my drift
I am a lefty
And real proud of that
Running circles around
Righties, in no time flat
Note to reader: Just for the fun of it, please comment with either the word \"right\" or the word \"left\",
or, if you would like to write a comment, please add either one of these two words at the end, depending
on whether you are right or left handed.
This informal \"survey\" will hopefully show us the percentage of left-handers on this writer\'s forum. General population
is about 10%, but here it could be different!
