0181 Ouch! You'Ve Been Prioritised.... Poem by Michael Shepherd

You quite like going to school,
‘cos your best friend’s there
and you hang out together;
then this morning, they’re with
their new best friend..

don’t take it personally,
you’ve been prioritised

You like your job,
you’re doing good work,
and the boss knows it,
gives you the special jobs;
then this week someone else
is in the boss’s good books
and due for promotion..

don’t take it personally,
you’ve been prioritised

You have the happiest,
most secure relationship
you could ever have hoped for;
then as you dance in your elegant outfit
cheek to cheek, your partner
looks over your shoulder, and
looks… and looks again…

don’t take it personally,
you’ve been prioritised



and you wonder
what angels find to talk about?
