Socio-Ecomonic Refugee

Socio-economic refugee

Take asylum
In the
Cliché
Of ignorance is bliss
And believe that
All is calm
All is right
With the world
Ignore the
Stumble-bum
As he requests for the nine zillionth time
.20 cents of your hard earned money
Or
One mentholicious cigarette
Whichever you can spare
But can you spare him even a glance?
As your hard soled
Loafers pound the pavement
That he sleeps on
Can you look him in the eye
And tell him-
I am
A
Capitalistic
Materialistic
Yuppie scum
Son of a bitch
And
YOU
Can't have
Jack-shit
You trifling
Good for nothing drunk!
Can you?
I thought not.
So you look at
The two pennies
In your Armani
Penny loafers
And pound the pavement
Head down
Having taken refuge
In your lack of knowledge
About the plight of the lower class
