a mile wide
and an inch deep
that's the kind of stuff
that will get you stuck
up **** creek
without a paddle
without a paddle
what is one meant to do
you understand
the motions
yet have no feasible way
to implement that knowledge
and now everyone is looking
at those stuck in the creek
in boats that all have a leak
as if it's their fault
what they were given
was faulty;
useless
trust me
here is the truth in this:
until we're working on
going an inch wide
and a mile deep
in a boat that can
sufficiently carry you where
you need to go
where you come from
will always determine
if you get caught
in the undertow
of a system that
only cares about you
if you were winning
their game in the first place
