What is expected?
Change your mind
over again and again
is there anything
that I do
that you find good?
You want more?
I show you my work
and you spit on it
treat it like dirt
not one thing about it
is good?
ok?
It’s all wrong?
Do you enjoy feeling this superior?
you may be a teacher
and I’m not perfect
but I don’t want
to feel like an ant
lifting something
100 times my weight
dragging it all the way
to the mound
only to be turned around to do it again only better …
always better.
Ruining my mood
stressing me out
leaving me worthless
to the world
a shell
a ghost.
Just the gray wash
with a temper.
