The Poor

There are a lot of poor,
And it's no fault of theirs,
When most humans, if they could, would stop it,
'Cause mostly humans care,

'Least when they're face to face with another,
Not so much when far 'way,
Not because distance makes the heart less fond,
'Cause there's more poor with ev'ry foot away,

Gets too much to think of helping them all,
Governments can do that,
That's what we have them for anyway, no?
Live in union, get fat.

And there's the rub,
Ev'ryone wants it all,
After all, you know you only live once,
Why deny your life its desirables?
