A Wish To Feel Superior Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Little is done to prevent,
Division, racism, and intentional conflicts.
But a 'vaccine' can be found,
Within weeks of a created disease.
Said to be a defense against it,
Becoming an epidemic.
Yet those who fight poverty, hunger...
Homelessness and disparities,
Seem to continue to be victims...
Of theft, corruption and greed.
Implemented to feed the need of those seeking,
A wish to feel themselves superior.
And rulers controlling over their own defeat!
