The Hard Choices of the Poor

The world is full of hard crooks and doctors, 

Soldiers who don’t know what they’re fighting for, 

And poverty-stricken mothers who work 4 jobs, 

Children who never look for deadbeat dads. 

 

The gutter’s full of dead leaves and rat-droppings, 

Sewer-gratings and empty cigarette packages. 

Now you must choose, having been robbed of 

Wisdom, which you’d like to sleep in tonight.
