Mind Game
Sitting there quiet
Away from the Queen Bee
Not wanting to be the first apple to fall from the tree
Not wanting to be the sharpest thorn
Or the ripest acorn
over which the squirrels brawl
To take in to their hibernating spot
To keep them filled over the winter lash
Just to be Discarded
as an empty shell when spring has past
But to fend off the pack of wolves
Defending with your mind game tools
Heading the other way from your School
You the solitary shark
Destroying and spitting out the fool.
