**********
Listen to the cry of the people....
**********
The poor gets poorer beyond repair,
Uttering wordless cry of despair.
Drenched in the misery of lack,
Curled up beneath tattered sacks.
Languishing within the walls of penury,
Which lingers in poverty's luxury.
Drinking from the cup of poverty,
Surrounded in its dreadful vicinity.
Chained mercilessly without food,
Whilst hoping to dismiss its sanctuary for good.
