From the hit book....ONLY IF THEY COULD HEAR ME CRY.....LIFE IN POVERTY


Poem Artwork

 

Just a little help
 
 
America is going through
hard times
many are out of work
many families dying
of financial hurt.
 
Many Americans are
brokenhearted and the dream,
dream of people
makes us unequal.
 
I don’t mean to complain
wealthy Americans, the
poor call on you again,
we need just a little help
so America’s dream
can be kept.
 
My unemployment
Is about to cease
the Republicans are in
disbelief
talking about deficit
wanting people to live
in their hardships.
 
Millions of poor
want to work,
America’s manufacturing jobs
are gone to the
lowest bidder
who can work, while millions
of them don’t care
about a baby sitter.
 
All we ask for
Is a little help
Democrats know the
plight
now will the republicans
get it right.
 
Merry Christmas and Holidays
from A family you know,
that continue to pray for
better days.

A plea that seems to go unheeded from the Scrooge that is called "conservative." They are saving nothing by cutting back and growing richer. Don't they know that they, "can't take it with them?"
