Behind the door
You're supposed to be the smart one;
all the potential in the world.
But what good is the potential to get things done?
When you won't let it be unfurled.
At home, I hear the clicking;
you cursing at your screen.
It's the virtual world you're picking.
Behind your door you remain unseen.
Your artwork goes extinct;
your mind underused.
What a brain to be left unthinking.
What a life to be abused.
I just want my brother back;
the way we used to be.
Before the allure of cords and extension packs
took you away from me.
