call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not

you demand my respect
demand my compliance
but how do you expect me to show an ounce of respect when you don't even respect yourself?
all you do is create simple traps for yourself and leave us to find the key to your freedom,
wading in the flood, tracing the steps, your steps, that all lead back to you
while all others suffocate in your self-pity.
hold your head up high.
marvel at the lights of the universe but don't waste time counting each significant speck.
find your madness and misery and face them in the darkest hour
respect you,
then demand mine
