Entitlement

By Benjamin Grossman and Cassa Bassa

Fold me into your poems
to be read aloud in the quietest corner of your heart.

Place me between the tightest lines
where your uncompromising lips can be softened.

There is no winner in this tug of war,
only me striving to stay in your vocabulary.
