Sonnet: Suppression

Man in authority does man suppress, And treats his subordinate like a slave! Despite no mistake, at him he will rave, Threatens his job if he doesn’t him impress. Man sans talents suppresses man with much! Former prevents progress of latter; But not for long, Time is the great healer; The suppressed outshines the empowered wretch! Seek greatness not by suppressing others! Greatness is inborn and God-giv’n to all; Suppression, progression only defers; Each one in his time gets his credit-call. If suppress others, you nev’r can perform; The suppressed with time gets back his form!
