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.
