Who Truly Cares?

Who truly Cares?

Do you?

Twenty souls float in the cold brine

In a quest to find a better life.


They are filled with hope

And desperation

The risks, immense

Do you care?


They lose the battle

And drown, their children

With them

Do you care?


The politicians

Resort to blame.

In their warm and comfortable seats

They resort to false promises.

Do they care?


Is this your land?

Is it mine?

Did we come from Africa?

Or was it Brixton?


If these dead souls were 

To land upon your

Doorstep

Would you care?



Please remember this

If we do not care

We do not share

In humanity.

Do you Care?
