In life and in work you see them,
Those people who think they are important,
So important that nothing would work,
Nothing would work without them.
But what they do not realise is
That the graveyards are full,
Full of indispensable people.

Good write Gold.
Thanks Orchi.
as we journey through life, we inevitably meet all sorts .. and I ant talking liquorice .. and like you have already indicated, not one of us is indispensable .. sadly though, not everyone realises until it is too late .. Neville
Thank you Neville, so true.

Of course, it’s Ozymandias springs to mind….
Or Narcissistic personality?
Centre of the universe? Do be kind -
Oblivion is for eternity.
Narcissists want to be so controlling, I knew one who was like this to his partner, he has now been thrown out after many years and she is so much better in her lfe.

This poem has such a powerful message. There is no person, no job, that is not important, from the person who cleans the bathrooms at Walmart to the mechanic that works on my car. And those who think that they are above only mock themselves. Thank You!
True words Bella, all are important in life.

This one feels brutal and I like it.
