Quatrain of On The Rise


On The Rise - not anymore


You rose to the top as though
you were cream, but
floating sadly
you went
sour,


Know what to do when you know
you're through, the
close is coming
within the
hour.


You are where you are because
the weight of cream,
is lighter than the
rest of the
cow,


You rose to the top, because
you acted sweet, but stale
curds and whey you
can no longer
disavow.
