Thrown in a
cage
Bars rise
as I age
I’ve been
doing the time
Before I
got to do the crime
Turns out
rules love the wrong
More than
the right
And
villains get along
With
everyone but the knight
Playing by
the book
Won’t let
you off the hook
The book
just nails it deeper
With a nasty
twist
Reach out
for a keeper
It’ll slap
you on the wrist
And yet
your biggest mistake
Remains the
one you never make
You can’t
expect to get away with
Wanting more
and better
Than all
they ever had or did
Just don’t
look down the ladder
And if they
really get to feast
On all the
beauty you’re made of
They’ll end
up with the beast
They sure
as hell deserve
