Conversation Cornered

“Don’t you think that’s selfish?”

The same is said of you—
You send middlemen
But I know the game

You are always across the river
And I am tired of rowing

Something inside tells me
I have rowed too hard,
Too hard against the current

I won’t let you forget this one;
For once, I triumph

“Why didn’t you tell me yourself?”
