A certain sense of entitlement
whose source or validity I've never questioned
Perhaps it's a uniquely American feeling
the idea that we deserve for things to all work out
life, liberty, and a guaranteed happy ending
that I deserve to be always happy
that something must be wrong when I'm not
Or perhaps its developed from presidence
Spring will come because it always has before
and indeed--
here it is again

Although I'm a bit late in the season and it's summer now, I love your ability to analyze the things overlooked. You know your writing is good if I have to read it more than once to understand it, or perhaps never fully understand it. Again, God has blessed you with a plethora of fabulous talents-all of which are expressions of yourself. Thank goodness we are allowed to express ourselves through a variety of ways!
