Talking Head - Exploring Brokenness: Poetry on Pain, Anger, and Human Flaws

Talking Head

Ubiquitous talking head
Flaps his crooked mouth about
Character and poverty.

Finding yourself poor
Is a personal flaw caused
By the luck of the draw.

Lazy analysis of
Complex issues,
Ignoring obvious data.

Born with no opportunities,
Higher likelihood
You’ll stay there.
