The stick up

The one thing i ever did

 with him the most, 

 was take walks

 with my father.

 That is when i learnt 

 some of the good 

that i know.

 I realize now,

 he was protecting me

 from all harm. 

We live in a world

 of many corners,

 where you can have degrees

 laced with honors 

even PhD's

 but if you live dishonest,

 none of it means anything, 

 you may as well 

have held a gun

 to the chancellor

 and screamed,

 gimmie the paper,

 this is a stick up!
