4 years of ******* hell
You've not learnt how, Just how to apologise, Instead you're rude, Words like a scythe, And you expect immediate forgiveness. Well, that’s not how it works, That’s really not how it works.

Your Entitled Generation
Accusations are made by the entitled And for my blood, I react unbridled Honest, to a fault For my sadness is too much My happiness overboard And my silence uncalled. I feel no fault in the way my heart tears Yearns Recedes Flowing out uninhibited, Like blood in my veins And I'll cry if I couldn't sleep I'll laugh at a book I read Hold back my words because, how much will they mean? How much will you see of me Feel of me Stand by me Hear, when I speak? And so I choose to feel Feel for myself whose feelings remain in one body Feel for big and small, all that I want, no more For my cup full, slightly tipped, and it'll spill

Too much
# **Your door wasn’t locked and I wasn’t going to wait Not after I sprinted here, that’s quite a long way I’ve run 3 kilometres just to see you** Kiss my shoe, be grateful. Surely I am owed some compensation For my extensive dedication I’ll take advantage the only time I know you’re weak You can’t set boundaries when you’re asleep Your vulnerability makes me greedy the thought of you subdued, **** Debilitated and unconscious Entitled, I claim that time with you #

It’s one of those days where we’re polite but we want to gather handfuls of **** and **** it at the faces of those who’ve known no sadness, other than the dappy misery they’ve caused to those, potential relations, they told they loved. I try to deny a bitterness when I check every lock each night including on my bins, that each of us is the same from birth but the score of this whole game starts on different tees. See, we know.

Schools and politics
The world doesn't owe you a **** thing. Hard work doesn't entitle you to a better life, neither does lineage, money or otherwise. You aren't entitled to ANYthing. Some people get more than they "deserve". Other people get less. "Deserving" is a manufactured concept to allow us to pity ourselves when we acquire less of a good thing or more of a bad thing than we expected. When something bad happens to you, you didn't deserve it. When something amazing happens to you, you didn't deserve it. Our very existence is a gift, and saying we deserve anything more than to be alive is purely arrogant. Be thankful for every drop of water, every grain of sand, and every speck of dust you have because one day, you may not have those anymore. So cherish the ones who you love, because one day, they may no longer be there either.

Sobering Reality
8/27/19 Somehow I had it figured out that If I made it as miserable for you As it was for me That then I would have happiness I stepped into the scene Chaos in the air as I prepared to do the deed Metaphorically raising the axe But then I looked into your eyes And saw a piece of myself How could I let that happen To another scared soul like me? Jealousy runs love away from me It’s hard to want the best for others But if I knew what I wanted Isn’t it also what they need? Do unto others as you Would have them do unto you Why does that sound so easy? Because all I want is a friend Truth is, I’ve learned so much But I learned the hardest way possible I’d rather keep it all to myself And watch you struggle like I did Though it makes me feel better It can only last so long And it always ends with everyone Hating me as if I had swung that axe.

Poem 39
Who do you think you are Your behavior I cannot ignore The way you act disgusts me You are rotten to your core Who do you think you are To say that I’m the one with an attitude You talk about me as if I’m not there I for one think you are quite rude Who do you think you are You’re not cool, but quite a bore How could you feel entitled To something you did not pay for Who do you think you are To try and dictate where I sit If you really owned where I placed my rear end I would see your name on it Who do you think you are To say I behave with no class You say I will never find love As if anyone would want to deal with your tired @$$ Who do you think you are To turn someone else’s blue sky dark If you ever told me to get up from where I sat I would pull a Rosa Parks Who do you think you are To say you’ll let my reactions slide You had better keep doing just that Try something and I’ll have your hide I think I ought to let you know I’m not like any other girl you’ve met If I were you I’d start shutting my mouth Because you do not know crazy yet

Who Do You Think You Are
And so you deny our pain. Our struggle In vain? Yes, thank you for your input; Just another voice In the body of the miser, In the sea of misery... And in your voice as you speak, Is the lack of resonance and luster; Of a voice that utters merely What it seeks. Lay down those baseless words And let them rebound off of the Words that resound And leave you ashamed and meek. Unfeeling you are in your entity Unseeing you are in your memory And if I was to be asked of you, I'd return the favour; Sans memory of your entity. You never see us drowning, So why should you see us succeeding.

i found that i am not entitled to those who care for me most. mainly because my heart is incapable of returning the favor.

bending over backwards
Rainy nights thinking about Rwanda, fog seeps out of the woods. Like smoke, it crawls across the fields. My head lights attempt to cut through it, as it intensifies, inhibiting my drive, but it’s nothing compared to Rwanda. I arrive at the Mobil, wait five minutes for the cashier to notice I’m here. When she does, she hobbles over. I attempt to buy a pack of backwoods, my card gets declined, but it’s nothing compared to Rwanda. I get in my car, and have a fit when I can’t find my keys, but it’s nothing compared to Rwanda. I begin to drive, get cut off and curse fellow man, but it’s nothing compared to Rwanda. I ***** and I moan, an entitled little **** but I’m alive, which many can’t say after Rwanda.

i wonder why we feel a sense of entitlement for things or even for people we don't even want.

You, know I've given this some thought and these following words come straight out of my heart. Entitled. That's everyone's favorite word to describe everyone my age They seem to look at us with disdain, and in some cases blatant rage But I gave it a day to simmer over And you know what? We are entitled. All of us are. We're entitled to a world we didn't Choke to death with coal, fracking, poisoned water and cars. We're entitled to an age when you don't get arrested and incarcerated for token up with some friends and blazing, or for protecting our loved ones ending up behind bars You're right, we're entitled to an Era when you don't have to carry debt to the grave to pay off a 4 year investment And a world where we can love and live as who we want, without judgement, Now, I know put of shape while you read or hear this you might get bent. Entitled. You're right, but not in the way that you think Because you've thrown everything at us but the proverbial kitchen sink. But we're still here, and not going away. Call us entitled all you want, but we're taking that word back today.

Entitled
Glass wasn't made to shatter; Paper wasn't made to tear. Fragmentation is a side effect of carelessness, not of life– Not of love. A rose is not meant to be crushed, pulled apart petal by petal, simply because it is soft. The doe, graceful and wide-eyed, was not created to die at the hands of a man indistinguishable from a snake in the grass. The monarch does not flutter with lithe wings to be caught, classified, and pinned to a page, Nor do the leaves change hue, turn crisp, and fall to be crushed beneath an entitled foot. I do not paint my eyes so that you can watch me bleed black and gold down my cheeks, Nor do I wear my heart on my sleeve so that you can rip it apart valve by valve. I am not your window pane, nor your blank page; your willow tree, nor your frozen stream. I am the rabbit sleeping deep in her borough; I am the bluebird flitting between trees. I may be fragile, but that doesn't give you permission to break me.

You asked why I left—This is your answer.
Since when is good enough, Good enough? Minimum, easiest, Thoughtless and rushed. We're giving pennies Wanting dollars in return We expect the gold medal Without effort, it's not earned Giving enough to get by, and no more Yet expecting the best From the rest of the world Too focused on taking To ever give But a one-sided life Is no way to live Good enough is not good enough Half effort won't yield a full life. If you feel like you deserve all the best You've got to give what you'd like.

Pennies and Dollars
Soiled corpse lie in wait sautéed by an armada of worms and snakes Take what is taken Love whats loved When bulls stampede at clambering feet If no bull present for the reason to fleet Still await with a soulless rhythm What we want A name long forgot Take the man before he pleads and kneels at the baby Price paid for the difficulty never met Shall you be sullied by the hypocrite condensed in common sense tattered by aggravation Call me what I am as you stand for who I'm not Take what i've been become remember what i forgot Former souls lie and wait to take a name the lie in wait Soiled corpses desired for take Be Somebody Somebody
