Many Say Our Life's Journey

Many say our life's journey is fashioned from the life choices we make That due to poor decisions the wrong road we do take But assumptions to make to some people do come easily The people who discount what is known as life's destiny, The child born of parents living in poverty Disadvantaged from birth what life choice has she or he? Homeless as teenagers with little to eat On the dingy sidewalks of Poverty Street Life choices not for those of the poor streets of town For most from there life's journey never leads to renown Homeless as teenagers they turn to drugs and crime And like their parents before them serve many years of jail time Life choices are not for everyone it does seem to me Though with me on this one many would disagree.
