The Pastor Who
Pinched my Walkman
He was on television receiving an award
Community service to marginalized youth
And chairman of a committee of community pastors
For the promotion of community somethings
I remembered him from the fifth period
He was a funny kid when term began
By May his eyes had narrowed and his smile was gone
So was my Walkman, but I wished him well
When after a few more years he was sentenced to prison
It wasn’t for pinching somebody’s Walkman
