Our People Are Suffering Mercilessly And Dying Unnecessarily

Our People are Suffering Mercilessly and Dying Unnecessarily Our people are suffering mercilessly Every second of the day and dying sporadically In Haiti, our people are dying unnecessarily under unstable tents Our people are in dire need of our (your and my) Help and support We must stop the sufferings at the door step of their port We cannot survive without each other; let’s use our common sense We have become too relaxed, too complacent, Too easily satisfied; we are almost nonexistent We know how to make better tea than any other party Let’s start drinking good tea again So we can be more energized and defiant facing the almighty sea Let’s start to move again for our people in pain Let’s defeat: ignorance, incompetence and nonchalance We need to help and support them 101 percent We have been sleeping and snoring We need to wake-up; we need to shake-up our bottom Because right now our bottom line is experiencing a phantom pain Our people are desperate and almost insane Under the cluttered tarps and the feeble tents, they are suffering Believe it or not, we are their oxygen and their hope Let’s unite, let’s help them, and let’s vote For leaders who fight for us and our interests Wake-up brothers, sisters and friends, open your eyes, Wake-up, open your brain, wake-up because the pies Are almost on your face, we must not rest Until we reach our common goals and destination together We need to love each other more We need to take care of each other more We need to help each other more We need to fight for each other more Haiti needs all of you Thank you.
