Man's Worth

Is a man's existence worth more than a loaf of bread To save himself from starvation so he steals to be fed Then off to prison should he then be led If a man cannot afford food, should he be better off dead. Is a man's descendants worth more than a gallon of milk Just to feed his children and to save his ilk Or does everybody believe that everyone he is trying to bilk Maybe because his clothes are tattered and he wears not linen or silk. Is a man’s life worth more than a grain of salt If he takes it for his food should we riot and assault Then curse him and scorn him for it his own fault If he has no means of buying, should death be his default. Is a man's being worth more than is own income To the judgment and ridicule of others should he succumb Isn't a man worth more than the dirt underneath his thumb As that is what GOD had created man and woman from.
