Slipping through lives Jittering through motions Sliding over eggshells Breaking quiet for motivation Keep yelling We're listening And watching you trap yourself under your words Keep fighting We're not moving We're watching you retreat like the snake you know you are Don't bite yourself When you slither in a circle

Slipping through lives Jittering through motions Sliding over eggshells Breaking quiet for motivation Keep yelling We're listening And watching you trap yourself under your words Keep fighting We're not moving We're watching you retreat like the snake you know you are Don't bite yourself When you slither in a circle
This poem I wanted to reflect the sense of dissatisfaction many people have against the ruthless and successful.
