Bernard Barclay Poet Narrative

Why

Why do people sell drugs
to make money
why do people steal
to make money
why do people become pirate's
to make money
why do people sell their body's
to make money
why do people go to war
to fight against stavation
to fight agaist poverty
to fight against injustice
to fight for ideals
to seek revenge
to gain control
to make money
Why do people sell guns
to make money
why do people poach animals
to make money
and feed their family
as a world
we should teach people
how to make money 
in a better way
how to love and how to care
how to let go of the past
how to stop hating
ideals poverty injustice
all can be improved
if we make the money
to feed the poor
