Read Time:29 Second
Walking through the streets and slums
Beautifully dejected
Highly populated
I wept!
I wept for souls dwelling in
Untold hardship
Children poorly bred
begging bread.
In the slum
tears of anguish
Perverted poverty dwell happily
In the slum, where
flood of abuses flow
Leaving mocking mouths
wide open
Causing havoc
Lo! In the slum,
Life’s hard like rock
There only the strong
survive
