Pebble

You are the centre of your world.

Would you like to double your wage? Even treble?

Then remember that in your life, you’re the pebble

Few things will happen that are out of your control

That will test you, frustrate and make you feel old

What someone might do or say when they’re out

Is not something one should fret over or worry about

Controlling your space is your one and only task

Ignore those who criticise you and look on aghast

Life is both long and can feel incredibly short

At its end, nobody reflects on the stuff bought

The craving of likes, followers, a social platform

Record, photograph everything like it’s the norm

Do something good or bad, no matter the day

Will always be someone with something to say

Whether applause or a snide remark ventured

Regardless of what is said, you’re at its centre

Believe in the almighty or believe in the devil

No matter what your beliefs, you’re the pebble
