Helmets For Free

When biking in the city, On the brand-new bikes for rent, Bikers should procure a helmet So their skulls won’t get a dent. Thus, the city gave out freebies In some lower-income ‘hoods, But the people who reside there Didn’t show up for the goods. A reporter checked the scene out And she interviewed some folks With their feet up on the pedals, Resting up against the spokes. Though they lived in places posher, Paying private schools’ high fees, They were there to score a helmet, As entitled as you please. Seems that life’s not quite in balance When the haves keep getting more, With the have-nots sinking lower – Doesn’t anyone keep score?
