Effort?
What is this that of which you speak?
Any ounce of effort I put in,
Not a speck of acknowledgement do they me beseech,

What is effort?
If effort is thrown back at one,
Told that one is not good enough,
And that all the time ones put in work is of no luck,

Its not good enough,
Never will it be,
No matter how much sweat or tears,
It’ll never suffice to those who see,

I can slit my wrists and bleed into my creation,
Put every bit of essence of me in,
But there will always be those,
Who tell me my best is not enough,

So effort who the hell are you?
Effort who so does tell me I will reap,
All I get from you effort,
Is wasted time that doesn’t come cheap,

So effort you’re done and fine,
But some acknowledgement is about this time,
If it’s not enough my best,
You can just ****** off like the rest.
