Straight-forward and transparently,
to stand is to stand.
Straighten your knees, use your calves
and balance on your heels.
A simply human routine.
Something most of us do on our own.
However, let's say I twisted it
and put "standing" in a sentence.
It could now mean
to be firm and steady in your claims.
To remain alive,
or strong to continue a conflict.
To rise above those above you,
and watch as they wade in your shadow.
Standing is
a condescending word.
If not for transportation,
it's only used to assert dominance in a way.
Even retrieving an item,
as your establishing your ownership of that item.
Standing is
a condescending word.
