Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Yes There Is Always

The chorus of the poor
Says the Economist,
As if it is a given,
An expected outcome.
A Greek tragedy
To be rewritten
In modern for the hungry
Minds of the better off,
An entertainment for the few,
While the poor hold out their palms
With a radical point of view,
An imaginary paradise called equality.

This read very much like a story or a film script. Each line held the keys to the next (scene) before by the time the reader is ready, the piece ends.

Well done on the structure and imagery.?
