The fear of being lowered

I don’t share my ignorance

With the people under me,

Like that I do with close friends.

I don’t praise the quality

Of the people under me

As I do to my well wishers.

I don’t share any secrets

With the people under me

As I do with my superiors.

Oh, what stands in between me

And the people under me

Other than the fear of

Losing the control of them?
