Obscene monuments of the rich, they scar the sky.
While the disposable poor just struggle and die.
The view from the gutter is different, you see.
We’ve been down so long, it looks like up to me.
Inequality, injustice and lack of fair play?
Too bad for them, too bad you say.
Trickle-down largesse? It urinates on us.
They get what they deserve?.. the underclass.
Don’t soak the rich. Soak the poor!
As I weep beside the golden door.
They reap what they sow, the least of these.
Hungry children , ...ignore their pleas.
As politician puppets deny poverty,
God, is this what we mean by “society”?
