The debt of circumstance

Generational wealth is the unforeseen
Totem pole of our time and date
I have a dearth of good qualities
Optimum language of the plummiest feather
More self control than dozens before me
And I take the beatings so darn well!
Mighty impressive considering there is
A deep well of rage afflicting my servitude
I can juggle all of the oranges you’ve got
I can busk and hustle and fry an egg
On my forehead if it suits your desires
I will twirl and whirl and dance to please
Your most sadistic tendencies
Well into the night
Despite!
The painful need of rest
I can give and take depending on
Your needs for any given Monday but
The one thing that I cannot work hard
Enough to accomplish for my master
Is to change the bitter reality
That I, I was born to touch the piney pitch
With my bare uncovered hands
Without the silken embrace of
A fine shining glove
