PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Arrived with head hung low and hand stretched out
Begs for gasoline and the glow of light
For food, the finest quality no doubt
Never expecting the Godly to fight
Might I, may I, in this earliest hour
Make demand of your cheerful sympathy
Never to hunt but to gather is ours
An imposition on your charity
Persistence is the key to my success
I work too hard to be in the employ
Contributing only to this great mess
Your wisdom shared I will not enjoy
I have learned to make such a small living
At the expense of my own dignity
