Lamentation



Why Am I Covered?
Is My Birth Unexpected?
Why Am In Darkness?
Is The Night Stagnant?
Why Am I Lamenting?
Is The Day Darkness?

When Is Wisdom Given?
When Will Change Come?
When Will they Wicked Vanish?
When Will Liberty Embrace Servants?
When Will Moguls With Empires
Connect With Me?

About this poem

Life is not fair, it did us know justice, it seems the digging continues and less than three percent control our resources; they stop the population, cover them with poverty and no help in sight. We wallow in obscurity and hope for change.
