The Weight of Everyone

Everyone, everyone, everyone.

And everyone,

Everyone by blood or by social flood,

Everyone wants to interfere,

Everyone wants to keep track,

Everyone wants to peek into my life,

Everyone wants to run me by their own insight,

Everyone wants to play with the puppet,

Everyone wants to release their stress on me,

Everyone wants to teach me to become one of them,

Everyone wants to present me clean,

Everyone wants to judge me time and time again,

Everyone wants to squeeze me dry,

Everyone wants to act as elder,

Everyone wants me to be obedient and clever

Everyone wants me to bend in front of them.

Everyone has that everyone in their life,

To make it hellish,

To make it foolish,

To make it miserable,

To make me never available,

To make me feel unlikeable,

To make me unimaginable—

Me, as humankind.
