Some people force their opinions on others.
Zip Your Bossy Lip

You dish it out
and cause me doubt
with your brickbat:
“You should do that…”
“You should do this…”
When you dismiss
my careful aim
you cause me pain.
Now I’ll be frank –
your comment stank.
Did I ask you
what I should do?
Don’t misconstrue
MY biased view;
I don’t tell YOU
what you should do.
You should just zip
your bossy lip;
it undermines me so.
I am the one to know –
“To thine own self be true.”

Author Notes
Author Note
Definition: a 'brickbat' is an uncomplimentary or critical remark.
Please don't take this poem personally as a reference to the FanStory site. This is not about reviewers' comments on this site, rather it's about an unequal relationship where someone is trying to dominate and undermine another... although if you are being particularly bossy and self-opinionated then perhaps you should reflect on how you deliver advice to others, haha.
