Born to do anothers bidding
live to bite the hook
to satisfy the needs of others
to walk uneven ground
Live to serve
confuse the ruse
hit the nerve
bad news in two's
Imprisoned in a woolen jacket
trapped within the skin
solace in an iron maiden
sleep on bed of nails
Injected with fear and anger
beat to death with love
laughed at and shamed by passing stranger
because you cannot rise above
One step forward two steps back
on the heels of the conundrum
the problem lies with what we lack
on our merry way we go
