Dimples on the Edge

I wish I had the words to express my conflicted feelings.

As I gain more understanding of inequity and reckon with the disgusting amass of wealth in such a small percentage of society, it is easy to channel my hatred towards them abstractly. & even concretely, in cases of billionaires, as I firmly believe they shouldn’t exist.

Then, I have to acknowledge that those feelings must therefore be directed at ALL the obscenely wealthy, not just everyone BUT.

It pains me to say that an artist that has brought me such joy is a part of the problem, but if I am holding the rest accountable, it would be wrong to not hold her accountable as well.

Rihanna, too…it breaks my heart

But there is no such thing as a “good billionaire”

They have built their wealth on the backs of many less fortunate than I, and the blood will forever mar their hands
