OK not getting what we want – as long as we don’t get what we might deserve

Annoyed in silence we sulk
with feeling have been offended
Perhaps glad at chance to skulk
mope in victimhood pretended?

Feel we’re not being treated right?
What if we are?! Here’s what ought unnerve:
imagine how severe our plight
if receive what we rightly deserve

when we’re lashing out at every ‘offense’
in thin-skinned, callow, ego-fueled pretense!

victimhood = the kind that declares that “if I feel like a victim then I am a victim”
