People seem to think they are entitled

to something that isn’t remotely earned.

Many are left shaken and even rattled

when all that’s given are lessons learned.

We often covet for things not our own

wanting them like a spoiled little brat.

Yet for reasons that remain unknown

our desires come short and fall flat.

I try every single day to not act that way

attempting to be considerate of others.

I’m not cruel or crass, I just want to play

treating all like my sisters and brothers.

Everyone works so had just to survive

try to have fun, for no one gets out alive.
