I am kept before the Lord praying
Within my entitlement, I am saying

The stench of privilege and entitlement
permeates this viscous flow
But it does settle…
for simple things to be decided
by us

Here's to you - founding father Thomas Jefferson
Getting younger every day,
Achieving your goals more so,
With life, with its assertion of entitlement,
Enabling you to arrive at fulfilment.
Distance starting
Hearts unfailing
Promises a grandeur
Hopeful entitlement convicted

They say
We change our name
We change our luck
And we all agree
This past year sucked
So here's my suggestion
to ease the citizenry's digestion~
The Entitlement States of America
Embrace your entitlement
to thrive
Hell freezing over
the moment alive
Protect what’s inside
of your heart
Transcendence embodied
— Divine from the start
(Dreamsleep: January, 2024)
Some act, sin surely meant, Ambition entitlement
Some act, sincerely meant, And bit shun entitlement
Some act, unruly deft, Some tact, and duly left
One say, entire verse, some say, and tire verse
Listen to poem:
Hidden Shapes
David J Walker
Hidden shapes assured of shadows
Haunting
lingering
From a shared past
A scant vision
of tomorrow
A bitter tankard of
borrowed sorrow
Where do I begin
to repair to my
Entitlement
Once committed to memory
the ownership sublime
Entitlement within your thoughts
caught in every line
Deep within your consciousness
intuition’s deed holds fast
Spelling out your right to own
—the only thing that lasts
(The New Room: May, 2023)
Leaving the country in desolation
Initiating an entitlement minded nation
Biased against those believing
Eliminating desire for achieving
Rallying undesirable factions
Allowing terrorist actions
Letting our Constitution come undone
Self serving animals every one.
Greed
To some, our giving
Is their taking
To some, our generosity
Is their indulgence
To some, our compassion
Is their entitlement
To some, our usefulness
Is their expectation
Our pain is their
Indifference
Our loss
Their fulfilment
Our truth
Their denial...
Wandering plains
Cascading waterfall
Bubbling brook
Waters that shake and took
Takes the ever breeze
Cooling soothing as it seems
To satisfy the surrounding environment
Brewing so entitlement so we that believe
In the cool summer breeze

Motionless was the cystal ball on the floor;
Everyone could see through it -
A sense of entitlement iced each person's
heart, for every eye could see right
through the crystal ball.
On the floor the crystall ball was found....

for those of us
who grew up
on the farm
rammed down our throats
that there’s no such thing
as a free lunch
still keeping our nose
tightly to the grind
such days bursting now
with youth's feelings of entitlement
reaching extremities beyond
our boggled comprehension

Life is much more than a pretentious ambition
A sense of entitlement or finding one’s position.
Life is discovering your individual, innate talent,
Unique self-qualities, on which you hold a patent
Your raison d’etre, answering “Why am I here?”
You will find it in the things you hold most dear.

Holding on tightly-
open to the dreams,
pondering produces pain-
enduring engages entitlement.
Along the way- walls,
novels not yet written-
dying in the corner.
Calligraphy conserving life-
holding on dearly,
a frame for future fragrance-
neither scars nor wounds-
grandeur grants greatness,
especially once hope is found.
There's an entity called "The Human Swarm"
It's presently 8 billion strong
Steam rolling anything in its way
Animals are most often made to pay
Inflated sense of entitlement a force driving
mindless acts
Lives of animals not equal is taken as fact
A planet denuded of flora and fauna will
become
Another barren rock orbiting the sun
This land of entitlement,
entertainment and enterprise
lost burnt broken...despised
skeletal structures reaching
griping, clutching, scraping the infernal sky.
arcane factories sit on horizons
haunt like houses of Man
burning, cursing the American wasteland.
Napalm fields,
embers of pyres that rage,
race across
This holocaustic ape.
I hate that I let people waste my time.
They'll clutter my head with busy chatter
and I let them unload their garbage.
They walk away without a clue
that they have defecated on my peace.
I keep thinking they'll get wise to it
but they never do and still I say nothing
but maybe just maybe today's the day...

Self entitlement is the bane of issues
etched in stone
hand written
in times of great happiness
sadly in great times of more bleak emotions
our self given self entitled righteousness
is stripped clean and drug through the mud
leaving us empty and cold
thirsting for things we cannot have
this is the lose of our sanity at the beginning of the end
“Do you know who I am?” he cried
When showing up too late
To board his flight; Montana police
Were summoned to the gate.
United workers would not budge
Despite repeated threats
To call the corporate honchos,
Thinking they’d express regrets.
Instead, Ted Cruz was booked again
For later in the day
And lucky for us all
Entitlement was kept at bay.
Humanity
Humanity is given existence to thrive and
dreams of reaching a new height
Humanity was not bequeathed entitlement
perverting ability to misuse might

it infuriates me so
kids anxious
to get their grubby hands
on their inheritance
~ their due!
anxious to claim their jackpot
uncouth arrogance and greed
so what if it’s at the expense
of someone else’s lifetime
of labor and sacrifice
the entitlement
the disrespect
mind boggling
it enrages me so
