"Respect" is on the list
An auction never heard before
High price it has
Desperate people with lack of dough
Virtue, the cost of respect
Precisely, golden means I suppose,
Very few can afford to take it home.
Rare can earn respect
Others demand it
On various bases; foremost being ego
Ego of knowledge,
Supercilious experience; loath worthy.
Carved ornament, emblem of power
Owners of badges who can't define power.
Respect being demanded,
Oh! How my mockery cries!
Delinquent versus innocent; your assumption,
I see fool versus back stabbers.
Be unmovable from your duty
Or else, you'll have to hold your mask tight
So you can kneel and beg for respect.
