Throwing your weight around

Excuse me sirs, but is it too much

to ask that you bend just a little

or toss your lush green manes aside

and provide warmth from the sun

to those of us that are not of your stature.

Has your magnificence allowed

all of you to grow haughty with pride?

Do not selfishly stifle the growth 

of the diminutive ones.

You’ve no doubt heard the idiom

“The bigger they are the harder they fall.”
