THE BRIDGE OF STRIVE

Beneath the city's polished gleam,
Where towers rise and spires dream,
A bridge conceals a darker stream,
A tale of truth, a whispered scream.

Above, the man with coat so fine,
Observes the town with eyes benign,
Yet underneath, where shadows twine,
Lies a scene of stark design.

In secret lanes where rivers flow,
A car of wealth, a hidden show,
A feast is laid, while waters grow,
With ducks adrift in undertow.

A man of wealth, with food to spare,
Sits idly by, without a care,
While others watch, their cupboards bare,
Injustice hangs upon the air.

The ducks, like people, paddle on,
In waters dark before the dawn,
Their needs ignored, their hope foregone,
By those who feast till night is gone.

Politicians, clad in suits of grace,
Turn blind eyes to their disgrace,
Their promises, a thin-veiled lace,
As hunger lines the populace.

For while they dine and wealth accrues,
The common folk must pay their dues,
In shadows deep, where coldness brews,
A nation's dreams, they slowly lose.

Yet still, beneath the bridge of strife,
Resilience beats in every life,
A call for change, a hopeful knife,
To carve a path from dark to light.
