Overlooked

Overlooked

We defend others with passion

We rattle others with satisfaction

We bear the burden of others

As we suffer acceptable discrimination

As another bypass of promotion passes by

The ones who discriminate with hidden insecurities

As we remind them of their weak willed self-centred self-obsession

But sometimes we burn out

Like an old battery discarded

Overlooked and invisible, till needed again

So save some of your batteries for us, if you please

To see passionate unselfish defence

Make a comeback again
