To whom it may concern:

I am sorry I am not left-brained.
It has come to be realized that right-brains
are considered useless in this sort of strict society;
Those who are useful become toys.

But with that point in mind,
What am I to do?
Suffer in quiet silence, writhing in a pool of disappointment?
Am I to just become a toy like the rest?

I can never become a scientist or a mathematician.
The same way skills forbid you from becoming a creator.
But the way artists are shunned and scorned is beyond realization...
Do the calculations and hair pulling even matter?
Everyone wants to be hopelessly rich and wealthy.

But no one ever mentions it's only the left-brained,
and the driven, and the lucky.

And of those qualities, I have none.
So tell me, what am I to do?

What am I to do?
