Causing Tention
CONCEPTS AND THEMES
THEY OVERWHELMED HER WITH
SCETCHY DETAIL'S
SOME WERE WONDERFUL THOUGHTFUL CONCEPTS
SOME WERE LESS AND UNDER IMAGATIVE
THEY WERE ALL PRESENTED
TO HER, THEY NEVER ASKED WAS SHE OVERWHELMED
SOME THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS TRYING TO BE THE "BIGFISH"
IN THIS LITTLE POND
SHE WAS PALCING HERSELF AMONG
THOSE SHE LOOKED DOWN UPON
WE ASKED WOULD HER PRESENCE HERE OVERLOOK
AFFORDS OF THOSE ALREADY THERE
THEIR LABORS TO BE VAIN AND HER'S SUCCESSFUL
MIGHT HER BUILDING A REPUTATION
UNDERMINE THE REPUTATIONS OF THOSE AROUND HER
THAN WITH INTRUCTION
TO THOSE WHO LABORS UNDER HER
MIGHT THEY TURN THEIR NOSE
TO WHAT THEY ARE
TO BE SEEN AS GREATER THEN THOSE
THEY RIVAL AGAINST
SHE SIMPLY IGNORED THESE WORDS
AND SAID
" THE RICE IS CHEAPER THAN THE SAFFORN:
TOGETHER THEY ARE EQUALLY EXPENSIVE
"MIGHT THESE SANDS BE FOOTING FOR
THE FERTILE GROUNDS THAT ARE PROMISED"
