Accepting Less.......

The world may be an oyster filled with tremendous possibilities,
yet, the Elitists among us are craven and want others to accept
less than they are accustomed to,
They harp and spew conspiracies of hate,
creating their own version of "blocking gate",

Our society has become divided,
victims of their snobbery,
trying to perpetuate a non-existent caste system,
with the debaucherous among us setting the scales,
They want folks to accept less,
leaving them no time to exhale,

These Elitists want the best of everything,
just because..........,
They have created niches for themselves
from the sweat of many,
They really have no claim to fame, except their
chicanery.
