Pissing On It

There are some people in this world of ours,
never meant to climb any social elevation,
no matter how hard they may try,
it's an inedible revelation.

Others will achieve the silver spoon inheritance,
some will work and gain in world finance,
some will make a meager living,
and some just require something from the giving.

The fact remains it's a deadly brew,
not for the rich and fortunate ones,
who do not struggle or tarry for their funds,
it's not their attitude.

The attitude of those less fortunate spawns,
a haste to hate the privileged ones,
to blame their success as a result of greed,
though in some ways true, it plants a deadly seed.

For this seed grows into a thorn bush at best,
flowers appealing and pleasant when viewed,
but tempting an anger, a thorn, that should be at rest,
causing reactions that are best subdued.

An attitude can make or break you, this is a fact.
Better to accept your blessings, no matter the count.
Walk tall or don't walk at all, and don't subtract,
your self worth or give it less it's amount.

Take a moment to think of yourself better,
impoverished, unsuccessful, or even a loser,
can hang unto his dignity or whatever,
and say Piss on it, yes, you be the Chooser.
