Knowledge is power

Or so we’ve heard

The ability to speak volumes

through choices of words

How about the people

with less than enough

to feed themselves

let alone learn in their rut

In theory they have knowledge

many wouldn’t grasp

the mindful realization

to make nothing somehow last

In terms of money, food,

general resources

give them the same opportunities

and watch the race of the horses

The underdogs prove their ability to thrive

without knowing to swim; they willingly dive

some may sink, that much is true

but others will rise and hopefully still do

continue their journey

attempt to attest

that despite their situation

they can mold into anything

& I mean anything

they manifest
