the urge every day
waitress stiffing you
for a couple in change
that girl you cared for
flipping you over
for some other fool
there’s a grip can come
pulling towards hate
the whole world
as a darker place
full of takers
piling on you
to become a cheater too
this taking on the chin
feeds the learning
leaning on a high wall
not to be misled
where once was the will
to rip their heads off
comes the call now
to be mild
rise above
let these poor people go
because they know
no better
