A Country Of Under Appreciated Heroes

The under appreciated heroes
Of a country
That claims 
To appreciate
And love them
Honestly society
It makes me sick
To realize
How many
There are
War vets
Living on
The streets
Charity workers
Working harder
For others
Than for
Themselves
Making sure
They can help
Feed others
But barely able

To feed
Themselves
The selfless few
In a selfish society
We don't see
Just because

We simply
Don't want to
But tell me friends
Will you care

Won't you want others

To see and acknowledge
They are there
And help them
To stay there
When one day
You yourself
Need them to be
