Shiftless ways
steps going somewhere
up or down there
tread on by those
going no where
the only thing living
up there is some hair
in follicle tissues
brain matter and so many
diabolical issues
falling to deaths throne
thrown from peace alters
not known to reach the top
from the bottom
looking down
trough tunnel vision
hyped up on television
arrested development
filled with sugary aliments
looking for a ladder to climb
a few steps up from a jump
up off the ground
still they stay down
