which sector of society
has the most compassion
leads social crusades...
to protect the poor
the disadvantaged
the broken hearted?
rich or poor?
the so-called
'least advantaged'
people taking the lead
are trying
to protect
all of us!
who has abilities
charisma experience
knowledge enough is
ethically
intellectually
morally
trying
to protect
individuals
indifferent society
from social political
environmental
threats inflicting
contemporary
apathetic society?
who is
consciously
more aware,
more enlightened,
more compassionate;
beware elite richest,
greediest,
most powerful
apex of society,
can rarely
see beyond bean
counter reports;
cannot resist
allure of mammon
maximum profits,
despite evident havoc,
humanitarian crises,
environmental disasters
such
policies
engender;
who will help
you in crisis this
your hour of need?
who will
you look to
reach out
a hand to
instinctively
know
will
emergency
help?
societies
humanities
so-called
'least advantaged'
people
are taking
the lead!
