Do people show you deference?
Are you used to receiving it?
Yes?!
Then take time out one moment to search behind that veneer of respect in their eyes.
And then let me know what you see:
Fear?
Sycophancy?
Sarcasm?
Why do they lurk there, these unholy things?
Maybe because you demanded it as a privilege.....
If that's OK, then its fine.
But if these sting you in the dark of the night, try commanding deference.
If it comes then, the deference, I think it'll come pure and free.
And last you beyond this life.
