Why Are There so Many 'Life Coaches'?

Why
are there so many “Life Coaches”?
Scrambling over each other like crabs in a pot.
 
How
can your Botoxed lips inform my life?
 
I want to look away, but it’s nearly impossible;
transfixed by your train wreck.
 
You’re always here,
creeping around corners and sticking your head where it doesn’t belong.
 
You didn’t even go to an accredited university;
licensed from the back pages of a New Age Magazine.
 
Cry yourself to sleep — just leave me alone!
 
I have an actual therapist with a PhD,
and I don’t want to buy any of your crap “Masterclass” courses
even at discounted rates.
 
Get a real job!
 
Or be a legitimate out-of-work artist.
 
Just stop claiming that you can “fix” my life
when you obviously know nothing about anything.
 
Stop senselessly backflipping.
I almost feel sorry for you,
until I remember who you are:
 
Charlatan-huckster.
Grifting off other people’s pain.
 
Vampire-Zombies
in hoards, en masse.
 
Fix yourselves!
