Nike Poem

Our life is horrible, they torture us for no reason

we work so hard and they barely pay us any money

we work for 15 hours a day and all we get

is 1.25.......

our kids have to suffer with no education, and no place

to play But the dump, its full of broken Nike shoes,

the Nike shoes are burnt, and causing our kids

to catch asthmas and to develop cancers.

We wish for miracle to happen one day we wait

but nothing...........

if only, just if only, someone can help us escape this hell.

theres at least always a second chance.
