Jealousy

by | Oct 12, 2019 | Poems

Jealousy preys on vulnerability

It takes great courage
To be vulnerable
When you’re surrounded
By jealous vultures

Have you ever been jealous
Of someone who wasn’t
Better than you?
The answer is no

Jealousy feels the way it does
Because it knows it’s inferior

Jealousy is recognition
That you’re in the presence
Of someone greater

Jealousy is notice
That you should
Stop staring
And start taking notes
