Poetry for action

A lot has been seen and said,
Enough has been written and read,
But many can’t get their bread,
They sleep hungry and unfed.

Why talk and discuss and argue,
When all know what is true,
There linger many without clue,
To find what is their due.

It is time to wake up, and act,
And face what exists in fact,
A dearth of effort and tact,
A failing in making an impact.

Let us retrieve lost time,
And undo our great crime,
Come and remove the suffering,
Let our concern be an offering.
