There Will Always Be Poverty - Exploring Brokenness: Poetry on Pain, Anger, and Human Flaws

There Will Always Be Poverty

With a shrug of
His shoulders he
Says that there
Will always be poverty,
And, unknowingly, with
That one pronouncement,
Millions, billions, of
People are relegated to
Being poor, simply
Because this one
Woefully misinformed person
And everyone like him,
Have bought into the lie that
It has to be this way.
