Kvetching

If all your basic needs are met,
Your bills are paid, no cause to fret,
Whatever food you want, you’ll get – 
It’s then you can be kvetching.

For if you have no place to sleep
And hunger makes you want to weep,
The only thoughts your mind can keep
Might deal with budget stretching.

It takes some chutzpah to complain
When others’ lives are filled with pain,
Yet human nature can’t refrain
From some entitled retching.
