Our Misdirection Instruction

We always put our necks on the line
to insult everyone who loves us.

While it is always clear who is the leader,
You is never the reader.

We talk and talk about those in our lives
but give them all the same name.

Because a nameless name leads straight to fame,
so You is never the reader.

Do our garrulous Yous have all the same weight
as our Yous of eloquence?

It’s hard to tell but it’s usually so
that You is never the reader.

So why do we follow along their lines
if epithet and praise is on faces of dimes?
Do we followers become those leaders
so that You can never be
the reader?
