For some, the long wait is never over
they are always in anticipation
hoping that the tide would change
perhaps, if this happens or that happens
Yet nothing ever does if you are
at the lower echelons, bottom of the pyramid
only the power wielders change- from kings
to white skinned sahibs to brown skinned ones
The powers that be, would like to keep them yoked
to use, manipulate, use as oxen to do their bidding
would like them to be unread, not be able to use head
ask questions, compare their lot with the chosen few
Therefore, close all doors of a possibility of higher education
is the sweet mantra used by manipulators, passed on
from generation to generation- ensuring the weak remain weak..
So, there they remain in eternal wait
for better days- economically, socially, spiritually
yes, a mirage, but they know not; Poor things can't
give up 'Hope', the only thing that they can cling to
during all seasons, at all times!
