betrayal's just a bitch
i cuss when there's 
no other word for it

perfectly paired
with covetousness or
maybe jealousy - always
one of those two

a third called 
superiority, the fourth
game changer is
intent

as much as what's 
been done, can sting
and crush a spirit
imperative it doesn't

let wisdom reign
her path presents
the way to 
rise above it
