As for the starving children of the poor,
the relevant questions are
where the father is and why the mother
is alone, single, scraping by
while the next one is impregnated by
somebody who left the first
and expect the contributions of others
for their sports games but was
left out to dry for it.
These men give up - walk away from
the creative spark which so ;
as civiliation was built on the promise
of a wife, children, family
does the flame flicker out, the candle
of initiative, to preserve
and to hold, to create and take care is
only sooth in the firmament
to make inks from.
For there's so many other men whom
are left without a family who
would have stayed to see them brought
into this life with a role model
instead of alone, single, scraping by
repeating the behaviour
of the absentee in subconscious life,
escalations of spirits poverty,
society breaks down.
Only poets remain to write of it then
but that flame too burns out
as the warnings of it are shut down
to feed the demon instead :
There's only remnants and fragments
left by the men whom cared
enough to write with their tears of it
drips into seething mixtures
of sooth to soothe.
