CRABS IN A BASKET
~ Precious Ewa
Give me space, I don’t clusterIrony, a group despising each otherI don’t know hate, I know my loverBlood families love less than fosterGenuine love has no verdict but trialsHug not, if your smile says “guile”Embrace, appreciate every unique styleAccept, hold a hand and walk the aisle
Sometimes, I sit and wonderWhy life is not really fairPeople treat each otherLike they don’t really careSometimes, I stand and ponderWhy life is filled with fearPeople treat you betterWhen there is grief to bareGive away is not a sign they careA trojan gift is always a snareSelfish reasons put love in the airTurn on your heart, be ready to pairFake love is always there to shareSupport you, they wouldn’t dareGoodwill is nothing they can spareStill, they plot to take your only chair
Crabs in a basketLet me tell you their racketThey try to bury you than the hatchetDigging not for gold but to put a casketIf they cant have it why should youYou must not win while they looseYour ego, they destroy rather than boostThis is the reason great men are just a few
