I am A Unique Product Of The First World,

which makes many unique products,
some of which are better made than others.
That world also says it treats every human being as unique.
Though it doesn't. I am privileged beyond belief.
The choices I have in own right are more
than all my fore-bearers combined.
Of all I have inherited what I value most
is the choice to not have to breed on their behalf.
For fear of shame if I don't.
Nor do I have to own things outright, to use them.
If I am to be the end of everything they ever thought
bought, and fought over, then let their hopes be restful.
