Song of the Plodder

I’ve made my job a piddling bore.
That’s why I hate the way you soar,
attuned to purpose, not detail.
I clip your wings and pull your tail
to no avail, to no avail.
Although it slows you down, I see
it won’t reduce my misery.

Different Tracks

Don’t try to tell a plodder
she owes her life to soaring.
She’s busy fearing god, or
the devil. Keep it boring.
