Doubt and the Bull
In the crowded glass market
I become the bull
Before the bull
I the man
Before the man
I the child
The child accidentally destructive
Treads on the unknowing in the glass of doubt
Doubting the man
Who himself is encased in that same doubt
The man wondering how to be the man himself
The adult that gets pushed from his teen years
To the years of a young adult
Currently the currency of work inspires to aspire
But the dilemma of a wage so minimum
The quiet noises he makes to not wake the lion
To venture past the lions
From the glass that he did not break
To that walk ahead
But that walk
Can get lonely
People seemingly there
But the morphed man eyes not tuned to reality
Doubtingly
What can it do for a man
The man
Whose trying to become a man
Just to walk through the consuming circle
Waiting for the red
Before the strife
Take his life
Run past the lions screaming
And in the glass market
I become the bull
