What is dejection?
It is driving behind big SUVs
trailing after their poisonous fumes
It is a new sign by the road
telling lies with happy faces
It is more stores coming near me
to give more shopping pleasure
It is a forest chopped down to make way
branches, leaves and roots in a heap
It is other drivers slowing down to look
but no way to know what they think
It is I can't blame it on anyone
I can only blame it on everyone
It is what denial failed to suppress
an awful guilt trip, a terrible fear
