A quick google search of a few of the lines of this poem suggests that this is apparently a quote from Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

A Very PPC Poem. by

This poem was just quoted at me by my older brother (whom I am trying to get to join the PPC, by the by. I think he's just about ready... Muahahaahhahah).
He found it written on the wall of a construction site in grease pencil.
"We, the Willing,
Lead by the unknowing,
Have been doing the impossible
For the ungrateful
For so long,
With so little,
That we now feel
We can do anything
With nothing."
Now, I ask you. Is that not perfect for our little organization? -

Yeah, it does. I like this, it really does go with the PPC.

...does it need a set tune? Maybe it'd be like the Hogwarts school song. Every Agent and every Department is so different, maybe everyone just gives it the tune they like and sings it how it feels best to them.

Probably. That sounds likely to me. *g*

Very PPC-ish. Of course, I'm not sure when anyone would sing it. PPC doesn't have too many all-organization meetings.

That's beautiful. And I think it fits the PPC incredibly well.
The idea with the anthem is a good one, too. But what kind of music fits this? -

Wow... that is quite, quite good.
Makes me wish I had the Flash or music skills to set it to music myself. -

Just goes to show that not all "great poetry" has to be complicated and wrapped in layers and layers of hidden meanings. I think that's great poetry. I just wish I could tell whoever wrote it.

That's wonderful. Someone should set it to music and make it the official PPC anthem. -grins-
