Fighting For A Crust
Now day and age
those words
that are trotted out
on special occasions
interviews
talk shows
Lecturing
speech
on Human Rights
on Crimes
Against
Humanity
Hollow words
Desecrated
spoken by those
with words
that are
slippery
literally
covered in slime
We sit we watch
we listen
we believe
And Yet
we see
that those words
Are Hollow
and we do
Nothing
There is no
Real
difference
Between Us
And those
land peasent slaves
of old
We're still being
Psychologically
Trained
on how
to keep on
Scraping
the Bottom of a Barrel
where we struggle
Fight
Compete
to find a Crust
to find
A Real Life
