Oppressed Child
A child who contemplates life and death,
till there is nothing left.
There is a lack of knowledge,
like a book that sits on a shelf.
No inspiration,
so there is no motivation.
No postive role models,
so there is no aspiration,
to be a scholar like Aristole.
An abyss of emptiness, of poverty,
only to live in a caged society.
He is held down by things that he does not know.
He never grows,
or sees things flourish,
or has sweet memories to cherish.
