The Pedestal of Popularity
by Jaime L. W.


Most have to claw their way to the top,
I was shoved.
By who? I don't know.
And when I got there on top of that pedestal, and looked
down upon everyone, you know what I did? I stepped down.
Most would have already had the crown and red robe on,
and 50 men around taking measurements so that they were sure
it fit properly.
