The vulnerable


Face to face, the powerful now stand,
Wrestling one another with their might.
They scoff at any weakness, hide from light,
Committing all the darkness in their souls.

They will refuse a given, helping hand;
They "have no needs", but standing, they defy;
Meanwhile, beneath their feet, the vulnerable lie,
Bruised and broken underneath their soles.
