Poetic Podcast Episode 36 Bop

Set the standard don’t follow the leader. That’s what I was taught as a little girl, work hard and you can do anything. This is the land of opportunity, there is no limit chase a skyscraper!!! Everyone can obtain the American dream. No wonder the ‘It’ word is now ‘Mediocre’, we’re dogging those who have made it. Those red, white, and blue colored eyes have faded into a jaded palette; Left without sparkle or ambition right at the struggle they give up and quit. The bar has lowered and no one cares, yet they want to throw stones and axes. Don’t expect to prosper from the game renegade geniuses are going to change. No wonder the ‘It’ word is now ‘Mediocre’, we’re dogging those who have made it. Love bombs to the unknown mastermind who found a cure for every form of cancer; Pulitzer Prize to the one who took humans interplanetary, until they saw their initials. If you can’t help than get out of the way, set the standard don’t follow the sheeple. No wonder the ‘It’ word is now ‘Mediocre’, we’re dogging those who have made it.
