Jack in the box.

Underestimated and degraded

to a mere bundle of entertainment.

Used to put a smile on somebody’s face

but when a brilliant idea surfaces,

people are quick to dismiss it,

shoving me back in the box

where darkness consumes my well being,

and there is not a single ray of light

nor anybody noticing where I am,

until I am once again needed.
