The needy are knee deep in debt. Up to their necks in regret. That somehow we still let ourselves forget. That even now we can’t seem to set it straight. Calling yelling and hate debating the issues. But the weight that the needy bear can’t wait. The needy have bad news burdens so great. Like, how to put food on a plate. The mood is called forsaken. Feeling shaken and appalled at how rude people can be, taking up all the cream of the crop for the few at the top. With a stingy and condescending attitude, bothered to have to stop and think about the needy. Pretending not to realize how greedy greed can get. Defending the best seed of deception. That the needy are to blame for their condition. That by simply wishing for economic security it could be so. The needy already know the reason why they have no place to go. Because it’s the law of the land. The needy already understand that they have no helping hand. The needy supply only demand, because they are denied the right to supply themselves. The haves have defined the have nots as deaf, dumb and blind. The needy are crying out for help, dying and numb inside. Left out and pushed aside. The needy are trying to survive. The needy are sick and tired of being sick and tired. The needy either aint got jobs, their job sucks, or they just got fired. The needy need for you and me to see what it’s like to live a day in their life, in their strife. We need to get right, and not fight against human rights for all human beings, even if their income is low, or poverty is their level, or their parent is single, or they live check to check, or their education is basic, or their title doesn’t get respect. The very existence of “the needy” is wrong. All God’s children to God belong.
