Sometimes the best way to get your idea across is to put it in a poem. I'll be right back.

The other day, a listener in Idaho Falls, Mr. Willis Nelson, a school superintendent sent me his poem: The Superintendent's Dilemma. Here it is:

Sometimes I sit and ponder long 
&emsp;About my work and life. 
And wonder why in school nowdays 
&emsp;There's so much stress and strife. 

And then I realize the job 
&emsp;Is not like yesterdays- 
I'm simply flunky now for guys 
&emsp;With the "innovation" craze. 

There's Federal projects, grants and gifts. 
&emsp;And piece-meal funding, too. 
It leaves no time to teach the kids 
&emsp;And things that I should do. 

I try to walk the tightrope 
&emsp;Betwixt the courts of law 
And not get tangled up with rights 
&emsp;Of Junior, Pa and Ma. 

Some will tell you this will work. 
&emsp;And others say It won't; 
Truth is, you'll get h—— If you do. 
&emsp;And twice h—— if you don't. 

Operations in the schools 
&emsp;Must pass the acid test 
Of OSHA, HEW and C.L.U. 
&emsp;And all the pesky rest. 

There's Civil Rights and Human Rights, 
&emsp;And Women's Rights galore; 
I wonder what uncertainties 
&emsp;The future holds in store? 

Boys and girls dress alike. 
&emsp;You can't tell one from t'other. 
If you should need to know the sex 
&emsp;You'd have to ask its mother. 

In clothes and jobs and hair and such. 
&emsp;You can't discriminate. 
It makes you wonder how a boy 
&emsp;Knows just which one to date. 

The high court Judges see no "diff" 
&emsp;Between a her and him. 
Methinks their years are catching up- 
&emsp;Their sight has grown too dim. 

Give me the good old-fashioned days 
&emsp;When gals were gals-not men. 
For all that femininity 
&emsp;I kinda get a yen. 

The liberals say, "Don't frustrate the child 
&emsp;With disciplined control. 
Just let him loose to do his thing 
&emsp;And play his chosen role." 

But he'll waste time and life and limb 
&emsp;And ruin others' lot. 
And think he's having lots of fun 
&emsp;On drugs and "grass" and "pot". 

His right to freedom, speech and work 
&emsp;He'll take or leave at will. 
And little care for public folks 
&emsp;Who have to pay the bill. 

The federal "help" I get from Unc(le)— 
&emsp;I Just can't stand much more. 
With tax, red tape and interest rates. 
&emsp;I'm getting too dang poor. 

If you should try the federal way 
&emsp;Of deficits and debt. 
You'd find an I.R.S. man 
&emsp;A looking down your neck. 

I'm somewhat like the school Supt. 
&emsp;Who tried without success 
To stem the tide of "Fed" control, 
&emsp;And all that meddling mess. 

They'd told him how to cook the lunch. 
&emsp;And how to run the school. 
And threatened to withhold his funds 
&emsp;If he should break the rule. 

He finally threw his hands up 
&emsp;And said. "I'm sick and tired 
Of all this ruckus, do's and don'ts— 
&emsp;I'll quit before I'm fired." 

And so he got a HUD house 
&emsp;With little rent to pay, 
And lived on welfare's "easy street" 
&emsp;The Socialistic way. 

The moral of this story is: 
&emsp;If you can't buck the tide 
Crawl on the craft of "easy life" 
&emsp;And take a leisure ride. 

When the public folks have had enough 
&emsp;Of all this liberal rot, 
They'll start to call a spade a spade 
&emsp;And things will really "pop". 

This is Ronald Reagan.

Thanks for listening.
