Because the Root of Poverty Is Injustice
|
Music: Fugue in E minor. |
Because the root of poverty is injustice, And there is wealth enough for all to have Sustenance and shelter, and the promise That all will prosper if they work and save; Indeed, because those then have fewer children, Leaving each more room in which to grow, Leveraging lives through education, Elevating lives by what they know: Do not succumb to comfortable despair, And think the poor, like flies, are simply there, Yielding what might be to what seems so.
