The wrong Child...

The wrong child sighed
So no one heard
Alone in a shabby apartment
Not knowing who his father is
Or where his mother went tonight
The wrong child cried
So no one listened
Alone in a Bangkok bordello
Not knowing who would take her
Or what he would do
The wrong child died
Alone on an African battlefield
Not knowing why he fought
Or when he would be mourned
What made them wrong
They had no choice
Their only sin was being born

(2012)
