For Most Of Us Poem by Francis Duggan

For most of us our existence revolves around the me, myself and i
And this includes me of that why should i lie
Suppose the selfish gene we do need to survive
As materially the self centered do seem to thrive
This is how it always was and is and always will be
In a Human World lacking in spiritual poverty
In a World of millions of homeless people and millions of refugees
The material wealth spread amongst the population to varying degrees
For every millionaire many are living rough
For millions survival is tougher than tough
In centuries from now the status quo will remain
And one person's loss will become to someone else a material gain
At least anyhow this is how it seems to me
But with this i am sure plenty would disagree.
