The Tired And Poor
David Soriano
The packing of people
Such inhumane treatment
The species can be
Less than that of animal.
The crude sea vessel
Carrying so many souls
The voyage of the damned
Taking so long to anchor
Endless hunger and want
Grievous pain of the indentured servant
The stench, the fumes
Intense horror and misery of misfortune.
In such a visitation
They reached the harbor
The Lady Liberty
Not yet there to greet them.
Unabated pain
The poor and the masses
So unwanted and devalued
The piteous shell of lower classes.
The trafficking of souls
So heartless a living
Bound in labor
With destruction of families
Purchase of pain
Go with the master
A peculiar and cruel
Consignment system.
Still they come
To the country which first called them
The tired, the poor
With the Lady now here to greet them.
