Earthly Inheritance
The future of humanity
may hinge ultimately
on how we take care
of those in extreme poverty
We better heed
the growling rumblings
in the rapidly
diminishing distance
for someday
the abject poor
we choose to ignore
may grow into
the nothing to lose majority
Then we will notice
the economic inequities
we have thrived on
when the peasants
storm our castle walls
