Snowflake Syndrome

Your self entitlement is sickening When did psychosis become so beautiful? The image of victim hood so appealing What must you weep for? When mummy and daddy pay for your carelessness Your car, your phone, your clothes The spoiled soul intent on self destruction when you can no longer consume self harm is on fleek Your little mind a cascade of self inflicted bruises Throw yourself into a war zone The day in the human traffic Sit under a paedophile's glare live under the shadow of poverty Sleep by the plague streets Oh you poor pathetic hipster Here, have the BPD and PTSD Sleep with one eye open! With the knife and dog by your pillow For the abuser that vowed to return For the shadows that haunt the night For the insomnia that wracks your brain For the voices of a demonic opera This is not special This is hell I am NOT special! The world owes me nothing! For what I have, what I want I fight, I strive, I survive I am not a snowflake There are many more like me Who live by the ashes of temples By the bombs of sands In the wake of unclean hands For virginity stolen! For childhood lost By war, poverty, disease, rape Your vulgar cry with all the middle class entitlement That muffles out the true cry The cry of a child in the Gaza strip The cry of forced marriage The cry of the cancer bearer The cry of a soldier in the heat of battle The cry of a mother who could not feed her babe The cry of the hymen ripped out The cry of the elderly The cry of the camps The cry to which you find so pretty which you know nothing of... You mold it your life of middle class shit! Your glorified bedroom a western modern pit Iphone, computer, holiday in the sun Yet you still feel undone? So you putrid little fetus Take my hand, we shall go where your entitlement can not tread where the raped are forgotten and suffering are dead
