Rich get Richer, Poor get Poorer.

Rich get Richer, Poor get Poorer.

A Poem by Onlyme

The fine line between the rich and the poor
in Mexico, the ramshackle slums sit
shoulder to shoulder
with the immaculate homes
of the wealthy and rich.
Who live in mansions and pristine
lawns and gardens.
Never the two shall mix.
Divided simply due to
money and statues
poverty and having nothing.
And never to two shall meet.
