Different Point of View.

His party, he was very sure.
Had motives sweet and purpose pure;
That its ideals were so high
That they at times brushed off the sky.
He knew that voters in it's ranks
Were good and true and that the cranks
Were over on the other side
And where the bosses ran things wide.
He knew that these things were the case.
But that was when he held a place,
And from the public crib drew pay
In cash at five or six a day.
He lost his job to one more strong;
Then he could see that things were
wrong,
And even on the other side
He thought some virtue might abide
