The contrast between rich and poor is vast, but that’s not all that poverty and privilege screams.

Palace gates
Poverty’s plate.
The gap between poverty and privilege, vast.
The stench of the have and the have not
Is putrid.
The problem is not that it is obvious
It can’t help but bleach your soul
Forever leaving its mark.
