The content of this poem<\/p>\n

Is fully recyclable.<\/p>\n

These words will be<\/p>\n

Rearranged and reused<\/p>\n

In a different way than here.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But if these words are recycled,<\/p>\n

Who will listen for the cries<\/p>\n

That are trapped here?<\/p>\n

Who\u2019ll see the tears you didn\u2019t know<\/p>\n

Were contained here till<\/p>\n

I told you they were?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What if these recycled words<\/p>\n

Told you that there are children<\/p>\n

Who cannot even cry anymore?<\/p>\n

What if these recycled words told you<\/p>\n

That their trade is as impure as their water?<\/p>\n

Or if it is so diseased they cannot even<\/p>\n

Produce tears but still bring you your tea?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This recyclable package of words<\/p>\n

Can\u2019t even contain<\/p>\n

Their loudest screams for help<\/p>\n

For there is unfairness in their trade.<\/p>\n

But will you try to make it fair<\/p>\n

With the help of nothing,<\/p>\n

But recycled words?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
