the bullies are everywhere

every playground
has a bully,
a red-faced fat kid,
pushing
the smaller
children around.
every
classroom, every
school,
every work place
has one too.
the world is full of them.
they're in line
next to you
at the grocery store,
in restaurants,
barking orders
loudly,
they're at
the post office
they're on the condo
boards,
they're senators
and congressmen.
doctors and lawyers.
they're in their cars
blaring
their horns
behind you.
the bullies
run the world, or so
they think.
sometimes there's 
even one
in bed
lying next to you.
