Got lots of potential? Got one of these also?

*****

Handler

Screw her up
Slow her down
Hang her up
Make her frown

Smear her
Undeserving name
So no one
Looks at her the same

Get her trust
Steer her wrong
Dish you must
Dance and song

Say it’s in, then
Say it’s out
She can’t figure
You out

Page her
Cage her
Then
Enrage her

Give her a
Little lecture
On appropriate
Protecture

For which she
Ought to choose
Every civil
Freedom lose

Waste her time
Waste her space
Manufacture
Her disgrace

Corrupt every
Last relation
Destroy her good
Reputation

Bribe and threaten
Haze and hector
To get all that on
‘Public record’

Made by every
Lying throat
Your chemicals
Can promote

Point your fingers,
Leave your tracks
Point out everything
She lacks

Make sure you
Make that attack
Behind, not
Before her back

Whatever you
Have to do
To make sure she
Can’t manage to

Visionary feel
Nor free
To manifest
Her destiny
