A Complaint
![]()
Today, I raise my voice against those
Who behave as if to the heart they’re close
As if that gives the right to poke their nose
In business thats totally mine to choose.
There are those who think
That I exist for their whim
And my helping hand they misinterpret
Into their personal servitor’s set
I detest those insensitive minds
Who deliberately turn blind
To the inconvenience caused to me
By their expectation of services for free
Those who irritate me the most
Are ones, who in their notions host
Preconceived ideas and for granted take
The existence of my being is for their sake
And what riles me out of my mind
Is that I spew such venom for humans of kind
Impure are they and they’ve polluted me
That today I fear for my own integrity
Dear Lord! Give me strength to fight for my goal
And to protect, preserve and improve my soul
