Passing the torch: a poem

Dear Joe, you’ve got a choice to makeIt’s not easy; there’s no magic.Be a hero for your wisdomOr become a figure tragic.You say you need to keep the jobTo finish what you started.But the job has been ongoingSince from England we were parted.We’re a project that’s in progress;We’ve final victory never caught.And for every generationThere are battles to be fought.To make progress with the projectCan’t depend on just one man.The torch has got to be passed on;Must go from hand to hand.George Washington, when he withdrew,Said t’was time to pass the torch.He said, like Cinncinnatus,He’d retire to his porch.Now its time for you to step aside,Pass on the team baton.You must let some other leaderThis long battle carry on.Carolyn McGiffert Ekedahl is the former deputy inspector general for inspections at the Central Intelligence Agency and co-author of “The Wars of Eduard Shevardnadze.”
