Pushback

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Jul 05, 2018 

Jockeying 
for position.
Defining
pecking order.
Defining power.
Sea of 
motion.
Pushing for
control,
supremacy.
Carving out
a place for
survival.
Quagmire 
of resistance.
Humanities 
dance of
existence.
Has always 
been dog
eat dog,
survival of the
fittest.
Pace 
picking up
light speed 
change.
Brownian motion
on a 
global scale. 
Turning 
the other
cheek, 
quaint musings
of a 
simpler time!
