You Very Well May Be Poem by Francis Duggan

You very well may be a stranger to fame
With little money or material possessions to your name
One in life doing it tough on a very poor street
Working hard for low wages struggling to make ends meet
But you are not alone people like you everywhere
There are at least a billion in the big World out there
To meet someone poorer you need not travel far
There are many so many worse off than you are
Do not tell me about it i know life can be unfair
In a Human World where many grow poorer for every new millionaire
Since you seek the answer to why this should be
You'd best go and ask one more enlightened than me
Why many grow worse off for one for to gain
Is something that's way beyond me to explain.
