Grievous

Some don't get to see a or b

let alone connect them to c

fittest of the fittest survive and deny

hide in their towers and live a lie

the seed of corruption is planted

away from humanities failing sight

the powers that be care not of their plight

layer upon layer has suffocated meaning

allowed shadows to veil the promise of light

the system isn't justified

so many continue to die

in the name of poverty

worldwide
