Modern Black Death

Hear not thou conscience calling?
The pestilence that doth spread
From thy bodies! That which breeds upon
	The human race! 

The hate so vile, The Black Death
Causes the land to be barren, 
Causes them to determine another's death,
	As if they were Gods! 

Mothers hate children of others!
Fathers, disapprovingly, yield them
according to his will, 
	as if he owned the children's fate!

O hear me! Hear thy conscience calling!
Feeble as it is, that would cause all
Mothers to smile at foreign children
	And fathers at all!

"That feeble voice ought not be heard!
For it goes against the accepted norm!
It prevents us from stepping over others
From climbing the corporate ladder!"
