the disgrace

  The disgrace

She lives in a shack
five children,
the sum of five broken promises.
A TV station
gives her a bag of food
and a washing machine.
To help people in need is a duty,
but poverty as entertainment
                       is porn
                      to make us feel good about ourselves.
