Speculating Spectators

Speculating spectators.
Tribalized.
Most of their lives.
Traditionally.
Conditionally hypnotized.
From children until adulthood.
To sit from couches.
Bleechers, bar stool, church pews.
Or sipping drinks to munch on snacks.
Wherever they are at.
Giving opinions as if them facts.
Have been taught to divide and take sides.
As to who they choose and pick,
To win games played.
And races distanced away.
With a choice made who is more suitable,
To represent them.
In positions of leadership.

Yet few if any of those spectators speculating,
Can admit to know...
What it takes to win.
In the face of opposition.
Or the effort endeavored made,
To take chances and risks.
Towards a goal many object to and resist.
Everyday and for years.
With dreams to wish resented.
By the ones holding on to hope them to be,
Eventually dismissed.

While continuing to listen,
To booers hissing applaud with cheers.
Anticipating to see a defeat that nears.
From places where naysayers,
Gather together to sit.
Regardless of the outcome.
No matter if they lose or not.
Winners they will declare themselves to be.
Legitimately.
By a demanding the rules be changed.
With the hiring of lawyers.
And soliciting the Supreme Court.

Then to make threats of a civil unrest.
Since people like this,
Accustomed to delude their lives to fiction.
Believe themselves entitled,
To steal whatever they wish.
Then protect and defend,
What has been stolen as theirs.
Daring anyone to object.
To an ownership declared.

'But...
Legitimately,
You didn't win a thing.
You said you did.
And this you made many believe it.'

'I agree.
You are right.
However...
If the majority is made to see it our way.
Those rules to follow may be right.
Yet clearly what you believe,
Is not these days,
Rules we follow to win a game played.'

'But...'

'To that I agree also.
Your 'butts' are in our way!'

'What about the laws
What about the rules?'

'What about grandma's apple pie?
Whose patriotic.
Seen waving a flag.
Pledging allegiance and loyalty.'

'That has nothing to do,
With who speculates as a spectator!'

'Exactly.
Tell me this...
Who picked a turkey,
As the main event...
To represent Thanksgiving?
Or a red nosed reindeer,
As a leader to pull Santa's sleigh...
Regardless of the weather.
One day a year.
To deliver gifts on Christmas Day?

'That's a myth.
Yet everybody,
Including children believes this.'

'So...
Do you celebrate the holidays?'

'Of course.
Who doesn't?'

'The ones who are not,
Speculating spectators...
Anticipating to win and not lose.
In any game played.
By any means necessary.
And knowing,
From children until grown adults.
They have been indoctrinated...
And made to believe themselves to be,
Champions.
Forever winners to stay that way.
With no exceptions.'

'That's...'

'Crazy?'

'Yes!'

'Again we agree,
That's the way...
We all will be,
For the rest of our abnormal...
Dysfunctional, normalized to live lives.
The only thing that makes sense,
Is the expense of the high cost of living it.'

'To that...
I don't agree!

'But...
Aren't you among the majority?
Aren't you among the ones,
Sitting in positions making decisions?'

'You ask too many questions.
For answers I don't have!'
