School Books
Deafness and blindness
Race and ethnicity
Country and age
All have become factors of how public school systems are made
Manhattan is three minutes from the
Bronx
Two different worlds
Two different blocks
School girls in Colombia are dropping out cause there pregnant
Babies having babies
Too young to feed it
Disabilities make people lesser
Then what do you call Helen Keller?
Rockafeller
Nike
Adidas
Rebox
These kids are using garbage for the floors of their homes
This world has been put in a lock
Jungle of poverty
Cause of celebrity wanna be's
One good hospital
93 workers
1000 people come in daily
Some people cant get treatment but everyone needs it
Playing in the muddy water
Calming the fathers
The daughters back but she got caught up in prostitution to put clothes on her two year old child
Yet she dialed the number to heaven to replace the hole in her heart cause she had no money to meet Marks needs
Now hes in foster care
Three people work there
No sanitation
No ceiling
All damn-nation
You see..
Cities have been affected so deeply that education just starts the spark
Just these cold hard facts cant help their hearts
Their struggles are deeper then the sewing of your sweater
Isolation and alienation have separated them from our everyday worries
Sway your emotions to feel what i feel
Notice the pain in their blood because its real
And the half bag Doritos you throw in the trash could be used to sooth the starvational deaths
Inhale my exquisite teachings
And become the apprentices i know you all can be

I was motivated to write this when i came upon this documentay that discussed the poor in areas of our country and other countries. Saying how much the gap between the rich and the poor is getting bigger and bigger. Also, that we have the money to offer help but we never seem to do enough even though the Gov. spends billions each year on programs of their benefit.
