How Dare You

How dare you ask me
To feel sorry
For you
Who are
too beautiful
too thin
And so young
How dare you require my
Understanding
When you have
everything
Big and shiny
What would I
not do
If I had
All that
How dare you expect
Sympathy
You who are
too clever by half
And pleased
with it too
Overweening
Demanding attention
And getting it
Then feigning
modesty
It is impossible for me
To feel you
Through the layers
Of an I
who have nothing
I who have
No-one
I wish I was you
You who
too lucky
Still persists
In waving
breathing
And having
needs
