Resentment, victimhood, dispossession
all petulant ammunition in the war between
those who believe they have suffered
indignities, their human rights despoiled
by others and in turn feel full entitlement
to offering up toward society in general
and their purported victimizers in very
particular their full-throated accusations
accompanied by threats of their own which
on occasion carry them from fomenting
civil disturbance to the commission of
violent crimes while claiming they are in
very fact restoring their dignity taken
from them by the forces of imperialism for
they are freedom fighters, free to battle
against the inheritors of ancient wrongs now
righted. While conversely those who have
been truly victimized set their sights on
recuperation of their self agency vowing
never again will they be vulnerable nor yet
abandon the tenets of human civility in their
rehabilitation through resourcefulness and
earned pride in their past, present and future.
