A penny in the hat of poverty

By annastajae

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

With one hand he put a penny in the hat of poverty, with the other he stole a shilling (100 cents)from the society of poverty. Call me an idealist, but i think we should help others to be properous and not put them in poverty!just a thought not really poem! Written March 17th, 2002 © on Mar 17 2002 11:32 AM PST   10 • 0
