How Do You Show Your Weakness

How do you show your weakness
What makes you afraid
What’s the worst that can be assumed
How do you handle uncertainty

Where do you hold your weakness
What makes it disappear
How do they know you’re even there What do you hold dear

When do you know your weakness
What can’t you quit
Is it respect or victimhood
That’s got you in it’s grip

Feeling small

Weaving webs

And now on top of everything
You want to be a victim too

You only mean to offend
Finding new ways to take offense

Do you crack the bones and suck out the marrow
Do you swallow it whole
Do you spit out the seeds

Security in poverty and annihilation
Who do you have tasting your food
Are you ready to take the first shot
Or did you bet on retaliation
