Read Time:27 Second

Take a bow or dab..
The scrutiny of life seems bad
Intertwined in webs of no choices
Cornered with men of no faces.

Life coruscates darkly
With smeared feaces on our faces frankly.
Abandoned with no saving grace
With hope of a better grace

The good days
Of joy and better days
Eloped with the Caucasians
Dumping us with low commercials

We seek perseverance
Meted out with endurance
We seek perseverance
To pass through these hurdles.
