Image for the poem .:The Lion

.:The Lion's Share:.

 
to be candid

it’s onto another brand(ed)
another new year
this we’d swear
we crept
then peeped
what’s thought as fair

the lion’s share
to play the fawn in this affair
looks to us
the same old tears
the foul growl  
demanding
fears

all up in here
never fair
lion around
they’re everywhere
dishonest guys
be honest guys
finding prey
we watch you rise

we know you think that we’re not wise

it’s shock & awe
the same damn pair
never-less
you watch us stare
steal the air
we’ll still play fair
to be ourselves
no worse for wear

said
& done
the lion’s share
