The tears of the poor are <br />The drinks of the rich, <br />Yet the shedding of blood <br />Is the rich man's headache... <br />And what of the poor man's justice? <br />In truth, water is too cool <br />To bring forth your anguish! <br />Fire is the only solution! <br />Drink fire to end your injustice. <br />Silence is each lover's desire, <br />Yet the poor man's unbearable pain. <br />Making a din is the only right choice <br />To put forth your final demand. <br />Dew is but the conspiracy <br />Hatched between the rich and their kings, <br />While morning is but the first step <br />Of each poor man's sufferings...<br /><br />Denis Martindale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-tears-of-the-poor-man/
