 SOME PEOPLE SEE A CLOSED DOOR AND LEAVE,
OTHERS SEE A CLOSED DOOR AND TRY THE KNOB,
AND IF IT DOESN’T OPEN THEY LEAVE.
OTHERS SEE A CLOSED DOOR AND TURN THE KNOB,
AND IF IT DOESN’T OPEN THEY USE A KEY.
VERY FEW PEOPLE TRY THE KNOB,
AND IF IT DOESN’T OPEN THEY LOOK FOR A KEY,
AND IF THE KEY DOESN’T FIT,
THEY CREATE A NEW ONE!
KEEP ON CREATING KEYS THROUGH LACS
