What accounts for the disparities of life
What if a person of no great talent thrives
Or another with gifts does not prosper
As a genius struggles to survive or endure
Society mocks them, doesn't care
Answers don't come from a place demure
We've all been given something inside
All have been made to finally realize
We live in a world of possibilities
With more rules than liberties
If we burn inside with creative fire
How do you express it, for others
Without being extinguished
Are creatives attacked due to jealousy
Why are the gifted often ignored, or reviled
Rather than that society celebrating
Why do they not admire those who burn
To share with others, and help the world?
