I’m not one for
Status and Privilege
I don’t want or need to be
Exclusively VIP
I don’t need a special thing
Just for me
Just because
Yes
I am a unique and wonderful creature
Yes
I can do many things most can’t
Yes
Some times
Most times
I’m the only one
We all possess god given abilities
Natural unlearned talents
the cheetah naturally being seven steps ahead of its prey
the sun issuing forth heat and light
Tell me
When you look across the hunting ground
do you not see the pack of hyena
When you gaze upon the night sky
Hypnotized by the twinkling stars
Do you see only one
