Making Them Have-Nots

Choosing for them
hurting our neighbors
them becoming our sacrifice
against their will

Cutting their services, their benefits
limiting their options
freedoms removed
making them have-nots

The poor, the young,
the aged, infirm
made to pay for our excess
the choices we would make

Something obscene
in a land of such plenty
the costs on their backs
while others remain wealthy

Leviticus 4
&
calling on the NH Legislature
and the Governor
to spare those without a voice
those who need us
from the severe budget cuts
that are currently planned
in HB1 and HB2, etc.
&
in part based on the testimony
