Victims Of Poverty Poem by kedrix Udjoe

Victims Of Poverty



We are wanderers
Wondering without homes
We are rats eaten by cats
For our sacks are homes for rats

We think of money
To make it out of wretchedness
Success is the hard work of hard work
I have toiled day and night
No money to be found no friend to see

We toil day and night without rest
We toil to reach our unlimited needs and wants

Education the rich maker
Said to be the easiest way of making money
I have studied hard
But only paid by unemployment

Are we sons of poverty?
Because we have tried without reward

Why keep on moving?
Since I can't conquer my needs
I have not eating; is it clothing?
Why is poverty our twin brother?
Why has our fathers choosing to be poor
Why is my struggles quenched?
Whykeep on hustling?

Victims of poverty we are
Seeking ways to make it
But not as easy as it seems
We are sheep without a shepherd

Why is money the ultimate?
Without it you are nothing
And cannot be recognized
