TAKING NO SIDES
There are certain clever preachers
who can cultivate the knack
of avoiding issues so they're
never subject to attack.
If they ever face a problem,
they will never take a side,
saying that "It's up to every
individual to decide."
From atop their pulpit platform
on a diving board they stand,
poised to jump into their topic,
but they never seem to land!
