to each queen a subject

I ask for so little
and yet
give so much, it is what
martyrs are made
of.
pity and blood.
a slow
whine
of poor me.
you despise me for
this
but stay with me
just the same,
unworthy of others,
aiming low
to keep your position,
such as it is,
in your life.
each queen needing
subjects.
