Victimhood

One of the problems we face today is the culture of victimhood,
Where people sit back and do little, feeling society should
Do more to help and support them, believing they ought to be nursed,
Forgetting their obligation to help themselves comes first.
The sort with complaints never-ending, who think all their failures are due
To rampart discrimination, which keeps arising anew,
To stop them ever achieving, all that they deserve,
Instead of making their watchwords determination and verve.
The sort that fail to acknowledge, that they should contribute more
 Instead of regarding effort as really rather a bore.
The sort that always blames others, though however deeply one delves
It's obvious that blame attaches to no-one but themselves.
They think all the time they are victims, who haven't been given a chance
Completely ignoring what's obvious from even a casual glance,
They've made themselves far too dependant, instead of taking the view
That they have an obligation to contribute all possible too.
