AT THE TOP

AT THE TOP

It's lonely at the top
The only ones who managed to hang on
rode with spurs dug in
I was too kind for spurs
I took the longer, gentler slope
While others rode straight up
But the uppermost top
was a slippery slope
and only the ones with claws
could hang on
and I was to timid for claws.
