Dirty Work Poem by Jordan Legaspi

Dirty Work

Rating: 5.0


The priest, the pastors, or the church leaders
who appears holy and religiously in the temple and yet lustful
The government officials, the elite officers, or the civic guards,
who appears morally equips and yet corrupts
The educators, the school administrators,
who teaches values and yet immoral
The merchants, the business-peoples, the commerce,
Who labored all days at any credit and cost
The crowd, the commoners, the simple individuals, who live
the life of misery and thus condemn God for such unfavorable fate
The murderers, the Jezebels, the night movers,
who offer their soul just to survive from the call of poverty
The men-women, the youth, the young,
who commit suicide as an escape from all the hell on earth
The home, the families that hides the truth
about the crime that the members had committed
The husbands, who have different affairs
behind the doors for self satisfaction
The wives, who embraces the happiness
beyond matrimony’s bless
The fathers, who leave the house
and look for new beginning leaving the mouth un-fed
The mothers, who simply
forgot her responsibilities for the family
The little ones, who plays trick
just to have pennies for pops and toys
The ‘you’, who knows the truth yet hide and denied it
The ‘I’, who criticized the world,
for its infirmities and misfortunes
