    It's hard to be content
    With no money for the rent
    Being poor you're in contempt
    Pay a tenth of what percent

    Some events I can't prevent
    When I sin I must repent
    To some extent I must extend
    A helping hand not just friends

    Politicians getting rich
    Selling wars through politics
    We're needing more out of it
    To the poor life's a b@$#h


    So let's explore
    Acknowledge it
    We all endure
    This counterfeit (this pile of sh! @)

    Ignore the poor
    Cause you're content
    Unlike before
    Without consent


    The goal to restore
    I hope you attempt
    And to free the poor
    Making them exempt

    Injustice in terms of wealth is something that we can all understand and your poem relays your feelings clearly. A call for fairness. Thank you I enjoyed that.

          They may be poor with riches but rich in faith, some people trust their money more than God.....the poor are closer to God because they're in need more, they have no money to trust in or worship so they pray more consistently,

          Matthew 19:23-25

          Here's Jesus words

          23. And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! 24. And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! 25. It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God
