SHE WHO PICKS RAGS - POEM




Starts still glazing

The horizon rises

The city's sound asleep

But her day's already begun.


Gustling chores

Unmatched chaos

Trying to make a living

She rises once more


Burden, only thing she owns

People around, unknown

With the hardships she moans

My lord, I can't take it any more.


Broken face, Ached back

Pale eyes, feet sacked

She lifts her shoulder and her depriving life

To get back on track walking on a knife.


Rags, she picks

Gutters, she visits

She's doing a noble job, keeping the surroundings clean,

But still treated like shit.


Wherever she goes, people stay away,

Close there doors when she walks the lane.

Give her the garbage of there home,

But forget the waste in their soul.


Isnt the toxicity in the world enough,

That we have filled our hearts with cuff.

Pull the mask off your eyes,

She is the one who keeps your place nice.
