Who Says That Life Is Fair?
and so it happened
that one day
i told her
frankly in class
that life
is not really fair
the rich gets
richer
the poor gets
poorer
the killer
is on the loose
and the
heirs of the
victim still
grieving
justice
is not in the
hands of the
innocent
and with a stare
i look at her
and tells her
who says
that life is fair?
raise your hand
and indeed
she raises her
hand
the following day
she kills herself
i guess,
she proves it
slapping
me on my face
with her
untimely
death
