joads are beside the road

 As if the oppressor was never a chid...

As if homelessness is not our cross, to not bear...

the homeless and hungry citizens of our Republic wait for our hand...a crumb.

As if the Germans knew not what the Nazis were doing...

you’re no better, when you ignore and dismiss another human in your sight while they suffer.

Turn your head, they don’t exist.  

it is easier to not care, but now what are you....

HEY YOU!?

"can ya’ help out a fellow American who's down on his luck"

As if heroin were never a FLOWER!
