Pushed and pulled
taken for a ride,
go, stay, slow, quickly now,
relentless shoving,
cajoling and bribes
to encourage, to assist, to help.
This man on a journey,
with reluctant capabilities,
still yet thrives,
in spite of, or because of,
those imposing hands
upon his own self.
Necessary, yet unasked for,
the pushing and pulling
must cohabitate with him,
for without such impositions
he cannot live.....
