The Favored Few

Beautiful people blessed by unseen gods
Born to physical dimensions by others sought
Wisdom or charm need not be of their concern
Their beauty alone does attention they earn

Strident with confidence to relish in life’s all
Pathway to luxury and riches to them bestowed, befall
Praise and adoration on pedestals set high
For most the need is not to even try

What past-life goodness gave them this wish?
That this life be served on diamond and gold metal dish
To be seen by the plain and mundane as the favored few
Only to hope that in the next life, they could be one too.
