Privilege Poems - Poems about Privilege

In a world
In a world full of snakes How do you tell which is poisonous Each identical Yet some harmful In a world full of political parties How do we know which one is all inclusive Different paths But the same ending? In a world full of smiles How do you differentiate between lie and truth When promises are empty And lies become...

You can't forget what you can't destroy
Rip the sheets of comfort of their privileged bodies Let the cold hit their skin To feel the harsh reality of life Fed with safety and security No longer will they be coddled by warmth Whiteness will not save you Your evil will be put to shame Your secrets pushed into the spotlight Pandering will not be allowed We are tired of...

White privilege
White privilege The ability to exist Without fear The ability to walk down the streets And not jump at every siren To not calculate every move And overthink every word Because in out world Our existence gets us killed And in your world a red carpet is rolled at your feet Your privilege ignites your ignorance And in a world where all...

Black without a mask
Black without a mask What would it look like to be black without a mask? Would it look like freedom? Or would they laugh? At our attempt to be ourselves To feel like we can tell the world That we are fighting back That we are tired of being attacked That we are human and you should respect that Maybe it would feel like...

Premium Member Misuses of Charismatic Privilege: The Violent Pressure of Personality
after Privilege of Being by Robert Haas A tipping point of too many are talking harshly. Down below, demon-dead in the unstirred inferno and perdition of animal thirsting are coiling one another's tails in response. They are honeyed vermillion and covered in trim the texture of hot picamar. They espy up all the time at the graceless rapture— ...

Premium Member Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Travel is not a right But a privilege, thus spoke Zarathustra In his most late incarnation Travelling is tied with applying But it’s more than ridiculous to ask for privileges. Especially since the answer is known. Zarathustra's commodity is hate I'm not tempted to support his drama Let those who agree to pay Have the privilege. Though, according to Zarathustra's logic The right to...

An Unknown Privilege
An Unknown Privilege To visit the city had been a dream of mine, one that my parents had been annoying about. They wanted to come with me but I ignored them, I just wanted to blend in with the crowd. Leaving the hotel I paid to ride one of the bikes, hoping to...

White Privilege
I have never been arrested, abused, discarded, neglected. All because someone protested, it’s my color they detested. I have always been protected, accepted, respected, vested. Civil rights never molested, my freedom never contested. No one has ever suggested, because I’m black I’m now suspected. To be so badly infected, that it cannot be corrected. Let this message be digested, if we want this life perfected. We must all...
