In the Neutral Corner

With expectations clearly defined
Forced to take a side, they hate me grey
Never wanted to enjoy the show ringside
Always in the neutral corner
Deaf to instruction, amorphous, stuck between extremities

The middle ground non-existent
Heavy hitters know it all
Swallow the whole pill you are given
Take it or leave it
When doubt is not an option
Can't resist these juggernauts anymore
Take it or leave it or be damned

Pressured by both poles in a fractured zeitgeist
Endurance put to the test
As deception lies in wait upon the unaware
And vision is distorted in battle dust
Must stay alert at all times not to get caught cold

Not to get seized by neither tribe

Beware of the bad left hook
Deconstructing reality
Evoking feelings of shame
Monopoly on empathy
Beware of a right cross
Conservation of status quo
High on infantile pride
Supremacy of the strong

Surreal delusions so enticing and pronounced
Killer instincts unleashed to defend the only proper paths
Everything else seems so lifeless when wandering astray
Perpetual dissection, no guiding spotlights

Out of harm's way
Studying the antagonists' moves
Striving to keep them at bay
Judgement undistorted
No voices whispering in my ears
Stranded yet unconstrained
