The strong, the weak

What are the strong?

The weak?

The strong are powerful,

gods walking upon man.

The weak are ants,

little things that cannot do anything by themselves.

The strong bicker.

The weak agree.

The strong are feared.

The weak are respected.

The strong are alone.

The weak are never alone.

The strong are in constant fear of death.

The weak have no fear,

for they have friends on call.

The strong belittle each other.

The weak lift up each other.

The strong.

The weak.

Who is better off?

A short little thing, after I got inspired from a good friend and wrote it up on the spot.
