Sad eyes
Pale face
Rattling breath
Hearts that break

Scabs and boils
Disease and death
Lack of water
Lack of bread

Withered and scared
Stooped and old
Cramped and contained
Shivering and cold

Rooms of seven
Rooms of eight
Crowded and cramped
Death; a likely fate

Just like you
Just like me
Open your minds
Set them free
