SECONDS, ANYONE?

I am tired
Bitterly tired
Of the taste of humiliation
As a sandwich spread
On my daily bread.

Oh kow-tow
Bow low!
Forget
All you know!

Remember
Poverty forbids
Excess of ability
Capability
Intelligence
Or diligence
To achieve
Or believe
That you can/should
Or would be more
Than a smear
Of shit
On the sole
Of those of
Higher social mould
And infinitely superior
Moral code.
