Mat >>ter Of Profit

(Action made, price paid, for the trade.)

Long ago


A ship would go


Take a dark family


To a new world destiny


Once families were nestled


They were then hassled


Broken apart


Before they even got a good start


Seperated


Made no difference if they were related


Profit was the game


Move hurt just the same

And it still goes on. Horrible slave trade in the middle and far east. Mans' inhumanity to man. Well done, Grady. Tough subject.
