poor man
In shadows cast by towering wealth,
A helpless man, unseen by stealth.
Poverty's grasp, a silent plea,
In society's tapestry.

Struggling echoes, unheard cries,
In the city where opulence lies.
Dust-laden dreams on streets below,
A symphony of silent woe.

Yet, within the humble heart,
Resilience blooms, a work of art.
Hope persists in dire despair,
A quiet protest in the air.

Inequality's stark divide,
A haunting truth we can't abide.
Let compassion weave its thread,
To heal the wounds where tears are shed.
