An Unsettling Stir

Undoing intricate tangles,
the bizarre phenomenon is observed

The lot though dished copiously,
is in contrast to truly deserved

Often labors those employed,
don't reveal the truest of one's plight

Where trudge is incessantly eternal
and no end anywhere in sight

Simple overtures get rejected
and one's intentions are treated askance

Reprobate one is often branded
in this inexplicable social circumstance
