Social Poem
People leaving left and right
Wondering who, for them, fights
Sensing anger from their faces
Thinking what’s become of this great nation
Never imagining this much devastation
Babies starving
And for who?
Leaders of the people is it for you?
What have we done?
Rich feeding off the poor
Now knocking on hell’s doors
How could we become so full of greed?
Relief is what we need
What’s the point of government if it’s corrupt?
We The People need to stand up
