Aspirations

Guess I’m on the precipice of “success,”
Playing hero.
Yeah, my foot fits snug in that gilded shoe.
I’ve only feigned concern,
The patina of altruism, it’s nothing new.
Those things I said I believed,
They helped me climb the ladder, true.
Now I’ll kick it down behind me,
The way everyone showed me to.
