Slum Children at play
Imps of mischief,
Barefoot in the dust
Grinning,mocking,even as
They beg you for a crust
No angles these,
Just hungry eyes
And eager hands To help u sympathize
They don't want love,
They don't seek pity,
They know there's nothing
In this heartless city
But a kindred need
In those who strive
For power and pelf
Though only just alive !
They know your guilt,
They'll take your money
And if you give too much
They'll find you funny.
Because that's what you are -
You're just a joke-
Your life is soft
And theirs all grime and smoke.
And yet they shout and sing
And do not thank your giving,
You'll fuss and fret through life
While they do all the living.
