Analysis of Privileged To Solicit Threats



What is it that makes one feel privileged,
To sit.
As attention to them given.
To solicit threats of impending danger.

What is it that gives,
Anyone the right to assume...
They have been anointed above others,
To screw up the World and spew insults.

What is it that takes,
One with a mind followed by many.
To accept and celebrate,
A destruction that completely...
Is intended and meant to devastate,
Their own way of life to eliminate it done!

Who is it that bestowed on someone,
Known to deceive, fraud and commit...
Treason, betrayal with more of it to come.
To then expect one like this,
Given everything given to not earn a cent of it!
Or proven to be loyal to a country that allows,
Patience to tolerate...
Someone with a name claiming,
To have wealth, status and an image faked.
Yet believe...
The only reason and purpose this person has,
Is for the benefit of the people.
To protect and defend their interests.
From becoming ruined.
By a way of life to witness and observe...
Who it is doing it with the proof and evidence,
Publicly in view to see it.
As they cheer and applaud,
Each episode of it while anticipating more!
