How to change a life


One man

Sits at the door

Waiting for a meal

Only to be turned away

 

Two men

In search of food

Hungry and thirsty

All out of luck

 

One woman

Lies on the ground

At death’s knocking door

Poverty abounds

 

A group of people

Pass by

Give a hand

While on their way
