Wails, sweat, blood, tears.
Consumed by the microscopic battles within,
With no chance of being the victor.
Hardened flesh to protect
Against the hardships of simple movements.
Working to live,
Survive,
As the proverbial clock slowly ticks
Down to the shortened end,
A disadvantage
Compared to the length of time for the elite.
Losing life's nearly 'endless' battles
From the beginning moment of birth.
Insignificant.
In the global scale,
Tossed aside mentally for selfish means.
Cleanliness to faith, health to suffering.
Water to disease, life to death.
Homeless, hungry, hurting, ill,
Dying.
