Focus

Close your ears to the ruckus

Focus only on the susurrus

Hushed whispers of those plotting

The best way to control us

 

Watch for the distractions

Don’t be fooled by the attractions

They dangle in our faces

So we forget our dissatisfaction

 

Don’t get caught off guard

Be cautious of the hazards

Don’t let them trip you up

We can’t hit them while we’re staggered

 

Stay on your feet and steady

Have your wits always at the ready

Their dirty tricks will not defeat us

If we’re willing, wise and wary
