He begs
from beggars
beggers who live in spacious homes,
wearing robs of ridiculous price
traveling in cars worth "1000 dead men"
from people who are bankrupt, morally,
from people who are bankrupt, spiritually,
and we,
the "epitom of solace and prosperity"
click our way into their lives
while they are asleep,
finger pointing to the sky
who needs permission to "expose" poverty?
who says poor people have privacy?
