Demand
"Drawn towards the word demand,
And the connotations it remans
The popularity of a particular brand,
Or the request to know where you stand
Compensation for a fateful event,
Or a request as to where you went
Retribution to even the score,
Stipulation you need much more
An ultimatum for your time,
A comment on the bottom line
So many ways,
It affects our days
Requiring us to balance,
What is important to us
Not to be served or servant,
But to ourselves fervent
In our aspirations,
Or relations
Without intimidation,
Or conditions
Of what others perceive,
Or in what we receive
And are looking for,
And the future has in store
Life is a game of one,
You decide how it’s to be won
Knowing whatever it demands,
You can"
