Poverty :(

Poverty

Blurred Pigments of Red and blue

Bring to mind the police

Responding to our crises

Aptly and alert

Though upon arrival

It’s pure brutality…

They oppress and beat

Abuse and misuse

Break our spirits

Lowering us deeper into this

Depression…

No… it’s and economic Recession…

In which inequalities are abound

For the rich stay rich

While the poor fall hungry

And We…

The…

People….

Fall beyond Poverty…

Straight Through The misguided…

Rage of the government…

And Deeper than just a simple

Economic Inequality…

 

We’ve

Reached

The

Poverty Stricken

Greatest Recession….

Known As

A Secondary Great Depression….
