A Tear For Humanity



A helping hand not extended from the parasites of the world who thrive on watching poverty and stand on reproach to lower the economic system to sustain a hierarchy for the elite and powerful.
A mother runs through the streets holding her child in her arm's screaming for justice with her stained cheeks. A preacher standing on a wooden box in the middle of the street telling people that these are the end of days.
A butcher at the supermarket hiding the best cut meats to feed his family and the farmer's are crying because they have not yielded any high crops to make a living.
People lining up with fear in their eyes being told to take a vaccine or quarantine away from people and loved one's society is shut down. There is no more entertainment, business closures these people are like us walking among us with solemn faces with their head's down we accept them because we are all human and we stand together for a better humanity and we will try and die for it.
