Hi Debra,
This poem flows well with its unforced rhymes. It is a warning to those in power that it is lonely at the top if you don't let others help you. If you take everything on yourself, you lose the respect and possible friendship of those around you. Being a pleb can be a good thing. I agree with this.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Good luck with your thirty poems this month.

It's sad to witness someone like this. It makes me think mat with a friend or two the person would change. Maybe we should try to be friends with even people like that. Ok. You go first! Good writing! :))

This is very funny. I'm with you, I'd rather be an underling. I can't stand people who think they are better than others.
Your choice of picture is great. I love the Smurfs.
Thanks for making me smile.
