Privilege


It is a sweet privilege
and a blessing
to not die in a revolution
to not dream of camouflage
and cement explosions
to not train your little sister
in the art of the guerilla.
It is a sweet privilege to sleep
heavy in a quiet bed
where we don’t dream of
dying for the right reasons.
It is a sweet privilege to not
have reasons to die.
