Bulwark

Some seem to think they’re hundy P…not a single doubt.
Never knowing challenges, they don’t look for new routes.

If one has seen two score winters with zero critique…
They’re way overdue to account for what others seek.

These people think they’re the center of their entire world.
They pay no attention to those they’ve left fetal curled.

I know a secret about bullies who barge through life.
They’re blinded & smothered by insecurities rife.

Unable to see or make change for personal growth…
They blame the helpers, not self, & thus break solemn troth.

There is no soothing balm, or song, to calm cornered beasts.
So…now we protect ourselves by expecting the least.
