Destitute

The world is depressed
Crying in a way the clouds do

We all know it
Does anyone say it
Quietly living it

Pretending
It’s not there

Many can’t afford
To exist

This is homelessness
Living inside
Our homes

Who will agree with me
Who will stand up?

An evil gap
Created by wealth
Human kindness
Is what matters

An earth that sobs
A power unhinged

Even the artist agrees
Sad paintings are
Captivating

Then we count
Our pennies

Grasping on
With desperation
