Poverty

The havoc of poverty

Is the undisturbed terrain

Of the vain unqualified.

Who live in distress.



Sitting on the recliner

Speaking about the poor

With the glass of costly wine

And there is nothing to offer.



Only talk and talk about them

The one who lives in the lane

Sleeping on roadside poverty

Eating the dirt filth of variety.



The life of the poor

In the way never to prosper

For us who want to change

Run far away from garbage.



We are show stoppers

Of the change makers

Who wants the village

For a powerful image.



We curse the poverty

Do nothing for parity

It is our disgusting outrage

In the social media age.

I am smiling so big here. "Sitting on the recliner Speaking about the poor With the glass of costly wine And there is nothing to offer." - EXACTLY!
