Thought Provoking, Sleep Evoking

You are a pawn in your own life.
Others dictate your movement, you thrive on hierarchy.
Sometimes you are removed from the game,
only to be told when to start playing again.
And again, you move where told.
And again, you mean nothing.
When will you realize that pawns haven't any impact?

Or perhaps it is the individual pieces that need re-thinking?
Dictatorship appears to have its perks.
In a life of choices, guidance should be more than welcome.
