Stop, listen, learn

      ——————————–

We pass them by in the street

In our casuals nice and neat

Give them not a second glance

Sit and stare, like in a trance.

Lying in a cardboard box

Ragged clothes, mismatched socks

Cowered in a lonely corner

Welcome to the new world order.

Can we open up our eyes

See what beneath the blanket lies

A stranger we might never know

Take time a helping hand to show.

Narrow minded bigot type

Rising up the real far right

Remember history of the past

Learn, respect the lower class.
