Pariah
Outcast amidst the favored few
walk in shadows, still in view
downcast in face, cast down in place
abysmal human's lost his race
Denied to sup the once shared milk,
no care nor kindness for his ilk
emptied fullness, fully void
life once built is now destroyed
Bows and scrapes for charity,
no one cares and no one sees
a living death, lives a Pariah
oh specter, where is your Messiah?
