Antagonized
if my life were a movie
everyone would be rooting for him
not you
he'd be the protagonist
the nice guy who finishes last
the human equivalent of herculon furniture
durability and comfort
unremarkable facade
or maybe a sensible sedan
good for sunny road trips
you'd be a motorcycle
thrilling and dangerous
shredding black wet streets
louder than thunder
puddles of lightning
zero visibility
the audience
wouldn't like you
but most of the women
would line up for a ride
everyone would be rooting for him
