The Working Poor

The working poor Worldwide are in majority So many of them are in dire poverty The gap between the haves and the have nots keeps on growing ever wide Far too many of a fair go in life are denied And far too many who are financially down The poor getting poorer on the poor side of the town And where poverty is rife there is social decay That does seem a sad thing for to have to say For survival of self and family from day to day So many must work hard for poor take home pay In the Human World so much inequality In this so called enlightened twenty first century Hundreds have to grow poorer for every new millionaire One cannot say in that there is anything fair.
