Shame. Poem by Tom Allport

Shame.

Rating: 5.0


When the poor
Begin to starve
Who is to blame?
When the oppressed
Become the oppressor
Who is to blame?
When climate change
Becomes unbearable
It's our shame!

Economic disparity, the enormous gap between the rich and the poor, is a big issue. Nobody wants to address it. It is safe for the political parties to keep the poor, poorer and make the rich richer!

It is true. There is no way to escape when the savior becomes the killer. Nice write.
