Ant are force to leave their colony
They are force to leave their home
Unoccupied dwelling and wasteland
Become source of livelihood
Inadequate protected and supervised
Begging at every intersection
Crushing poverty, unimaginable degradation
Sleeping on pavement at night
Source of misery for earliest time
Exposed to Dog than to Kindness
Imminently lose their home
Facing starvation everyday
Struggling in temporary camp
Where disease and hunger are rife
Hoping to be safe
Their anxiety are heightened
Not alleviate by shelter life
Wages fell, buying power decreased
Depression slow down progress in them
Vulnerable to mental Illness and alcohol
Less advantage to achieve
Ready for bad luck to happen
Home was never a dream
Forgetten people of the world
Stucking in a desolate place
Pocket pulled out to signal poverty
Constantly tossed about without rest
Waving frantically, crying for help
Trying to stay focused on real
Nature of the disaster.
The Great Depression
