Minefield

They'll probably fire me
over commments I made
in the heat of the moment.

I practice my songs,
but something feels wrong.
Here I am waiting for the fall.

I love singing
and performing.
But this band thing
sometimes is too much.

Like a minefield
I can dodge most
but I'm sure I'll hit
something eventually.

It's more work
than I counted on
to sing with four others.

I'm glad I joined
if only to say I could do it
but at what price?
