Entitlement
If I had but a wish
A reward greater than heaven
I would give
However, must you demand?
The Elephant ask that we leave them in peace
The seal asks us to lower the club
The trees ask for more time
But you ask for the world
The cold and weary ask for a blanket and a place to rest
The hungry ask for just a morsel
The abused ask for safe passage
You demand the world
