entitlement

Entitlement
We carry it around
Entitlement
We wrap ourselves in it

What exception do you expect
because of your gender?
What privilege
because of your skin?

What obedience
because of your strength?
What indulgence
because of your age?

What respect
because of your position?
What luxury
because of your wealth?

What love
because of your looks?

When you look in the mirror
what do you see?
What if the world
should disagree?
