BEYOND HIS PARTY AND BEYOND HIS CLASS,
THIS MAN FORSOOK THE FEW TO SERVE THE MASS.
HE FOUND US GROPING LEADERLESS AND BLIND,
HE LEFT A CITY WITH A CIVIC MIND.
HE FOUND US STRIVING EACH HIS SELFISH PART,
HE LEFT A CITY WITH A CIVIC HEART.
AND EVER WITH HIS EYE SET ON THE GOAL,
THE VISION OF A CITY WITH A SOUL.
