Confidential Confidence

A Poem

We've tried to give you our all without revealing

More,

Fighting this losing battle in attempt to help it

Resemble a more appealing score.

Your zealous tone has become such an inviting

Sound,

Bossed around, and written up for the silenced grammar

We've been writing down.

Distracted by jumping cows while searching for a clean plate and a

New spoon,

Same song and dance, we are on beat cutting this rug in the form of a

New tune.

It's "Up in the air" why they would prefer our wings

Clipped,

Perhaps they've seen the way we act in accordance to

Their script.

No longer quieting down from petty instructions to

Hush more,

"Big headed," they've uncovered our plan to redesign

Mount Rushmore.

Easier said than done, who knew this task would be so

Difficult,

Organized our new sect to stand alone as a different

Cult.

The elephant in the room has adapted to the offensive

Murals in the peanut gallery,

Imagining a cherry on top, we try to enjoy this sweet life

Without missing a single calorie.

Competing in this poor sport, we surpassed the qualifying

Round,

We can do this in our sleep, but never take anything lying

Down.

Strip us of our capital and our "Lowercase"

Chime,

We possess enough iron in our diet to fix any

"Wrinkle in Time."

We are the anchormen chosen to weather the storm upon

This slave ship,

Though noticeable hard work has yet registered on this

Grave shift.

The best kept secrets, they were never prepared for the day

Someone outed us,

Faithfully put into play was a rebuttal fueled by the ones that always

Doubted us.

You were comforted by your own surrender, in which we've never seen

A more whiter flag,

We are ready to change the game, So, we brought our own

Diaper bag.

We never wanted you to be too scared but if you are, well,

Fine,

Our aspiration alone will send "goosebumps" up your

R.L Spine.
