Envy and bitterness

leaching through messages

Attacking success,

perseverence, achievement.

Pick them apart.

Minimize them to maximize you?

Hey dude,

Are you compensating?

Facing ‘if such unremarkable folk

can do it,

why can’t you?’

Is wondering why they’ve won

making you feel useless?

Um.

Maybe the difference is

they quit making excuses

and just got it done?
