You mock me.
You laugh at my stupidity,
but is it really stupidity?

The length of the day makes me weak
It gives you more time
time for anger
time for ignorance
time to be you

You've sat on the throne all your life.
You wont pass the seat to someonelse.

I know you,
you aren't that hard to figure out,
although you wish you were.

You mock them.
You laugh at them. Are you able to judge?

I sit in the heat of the sun, Watching you enjoy the shade straining to
understand why.
