Appropriation Poem

They tell you
you can hold a mountain in your hands,
you can do and be what you want.
They say.
Who is they?
Who are they to say what you are and what you cannot be?
Power is a funny thing to have.
And to not have.
Envy, gluttony, greed, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath
Success versus defeat.
You versus them.
Who will you become?
Who will you leave behind?
What version of yourself will be waving in the rear view window?
