This Is A Sad Thing Poem by Francis Duggan

Sad to say we will always have the material and social divide
And sad to say that the gap between the rich and the poor does keep growing wide
So many poor people in life doing it tough
Whilst the privileged few of life's luxuries have far more than enough
In humanity there is so much inequality indeed
In a fair Human World anyone of shelter and food of would not go in need
The majority of the material wealth of the World is owned by the few
And this is not saying anything that is new
But death makes all equal in truth one can say
There are not any billionaires where dead people lay
And though anyone does not see Life's Reaper as a friend
The one who wields the scythe of death makes all equal why otherwise pretend
The gap between the wealthy and the poor does keep growing by the day
And this is a sad thing for to have to say.
