The Sister I Know Is Close

Dear you write your note to your beat
For who cares how you right your boat
You do stand on your own two feet
So I pass my views from my throat

How you carry your weight and tote
So be that it's a one-way street
It's your shading, hue, and dark coat
It's the storm you weather and greet

Sorry you're not friendly and sweet
For you looked upon as a goat
With your head down grazing the heat
With your pent tears and insides bloat

It's your stage and music of note
It's your pasture of tears that bleat
You could care what your brother wrote
But you much rather wall and fleet 

Sister, I wish you take a seat
At the table with newfound oat
And see that life's filled with a treat
So put down your fortress and moat

Sister, I also wore your coat
I, too, went thru your mill and feat
Yes I feel your streamed tears by rote
Wisely I changed my tune and tweet
Dear you write your note
