Depends who you are.
He victimized me and took my confidence
Like an animal, I lost control.
Giving in to weakness and emotions
It was only words that brought me down
As children starve and we waste
Full stomachs even the pets
Distribution, poverty, greed
as he disposes what he couldn't sell
Addiction to machines and the warm glow
not of a fire or rhythmic breathing
Only listening to the sounds on plastic
Food wrapped in celaphane
Goals based on career and how we look
Sending the poor to fight the war
So we can keep driving our Merecedes-Benz
in our $6,000 suits
Volunteering at a homeless shelter
So grateful for warmth even though
they've spent all their money on drugs
But I'm the one wearing nice shoes for what?
Ivy League education forgotten because
he is Money hungry
they are Politicians
Making the decisions
Silly words get to you
the insecure, his
Rages and rants
Losing weight, life, time
and
your friends
So what does humility require?
Letting everyone else...
