When a group feels
they are
a special breed apart
Preferred residents
in a state of grace
above all the rest
of the commonplace
and misguided populace
Prejudice is inevitable
against those deemed below
the self proclaimed
guardians of exceptionalism
and then
resentment builds over time
in the hearts of those
stuck in the pressure cooker
of poverty
toward the elite citizens
of snobbery
who can never understand
the turmoil they scornfully see
on their 84 inch screens
when the depressed class
they ignore
finally explodes
