The We Are Worth It Brigade

 

Sleek shiny hair! I’m worth it! Dye it just the perfect shade!
I’m a paid up member of the We are Worth it Brigade.

Breakfast must be Brie, with Rose’s  marmalade;
little treats to start the day of We Are Worth It Brigade.

If only they had fewer kids they would not need our Aid;
we go for what we want at the We Are Worth It Brigade.

Designer goods and gourmet dining are so retrograde!
Meaningful experience for We Are Worth It Brigade.

Life-enhancing holidays, beautifully portrayed;
‘been there, done that’, mantra rules the We Are Worth It Brigade.

Turn off those TV shots of one more famine and air raid;
we owe ourselves compassion at the We Are Worth It Brigade.

Go diving with sharks, and feel deliciously afraid;
free our inner child and play the We Are Worth It Brigade.

I’m sure my hair tint will receive its rightful accolade;
I’m a paid up member of the We Are Worth It Brigade.
