This escalator
is in reverse
Who is taking my complaint?
I try to go up
but it moves me
back to start again
Mr. Store Manager
Great Architect
Mr. Mechanic
Why does this escalator
move backward
whilst I am on it?
I see children
skipping steps
joking their way forward
And Old haters
tired of life
moving up and onwards
Religious wine bibbers
with thousands
of communion
in hand
And talk about women
riding up
with my man
Mr. Architect
Do something!
I want to
schedule a meeting
Yes!
We need to converse
about why
this escalator
is in reverse
