Lockdown Kills the Poor
Lockdown kills the poor
The world is changing
Who got eyes let them see
The poor is slowly dying
Their pains are unbearable
It use to be hard to survive
But now is harder than
It use to be
How can the poor be
this more poorer
Alot of job lost
Alot of income chattered
It like a systematic warfare
And it silence kills more
Than the virus
Lockdown kills the poor
How can you lock a hungry man down
Without a basic necessities
How could the third world feeds
It own in this era
Before this time
Somany can't feed in the third world
Somany are out of job
Somany are out of the balance
Of life
And now never bring no good
Instead it bleeds the opposite
It so sad when the poor is locked
With out no help
An African youth once said
And I quote
Richard the hunger virus
Kills us more than the covid
