The Plight of Man
Location
Are you a man?
No one cares. You are just a man.
Are you joining the military?
No one cares. You are just a man.
Are you depressed?
No one cares. You are just a man.
Were you laid off?
No one cares. You are just a man.
Just divorced?
No one cares. You are just a man.
Are you homeless?
No one cares. You are just a man.
Considering suicide?
No one cares. You are just a man.
What would you know about oppression, hardship, or unfairness?
Everything actually, but no one cares.
Because you're just a man.
- End.
