maledicted

Deep in the bowels of society
rots the scum of our perversity
where appearances have shunned
the maledicted ones
who live off boxes, carts and garbage cans;
who beg for change with calloused hands.
They smoke, drink or shoot up random dollars
while self-indulgent scholars
purport to effect enlightenment
with public service announcements
that rally all the charities
to give their kind gratuities.
But every dollar or minute spent,
with all its good intents,
doesn't seem to make a difference.
