IS BEING POOR A CRIME???????????

its noon
sun is on its cruel best
scorching down and threatening every living creature
every human being trying to save him from this nature's cruelety
rich people use to go out in their luxury cars with shades and air conditioning on
middle class people trying to avoid the travel via bus
nd pulling out there vehicles in the extreme unavoidable conditions
then comes the class which i say cursed by god....the lower class
they dont hav any option with them 
they are the ones who suffers the most and prays to god for pouring water from heaven
i saw a 5 year old kid lying under a temporary shelter and hot air had every possible entry in that shelter 
and that kid's mother was trying to cover his body with her clothes
my eyes were moist by now 
i had my niece(bhaanji) sitting next to me and i realised how painful is to see ur loved ones facin the unavoidable circumstances
i had scolded my sister several times for lettin my niece go out without any footwears
but after seeing that kid i thought that his mamu can only hope and pray for a piece of bread from god instead of all the luxuries
then i realised that being poor is crime in today's life
u can't do anything other then lettin ur closed ones die in scarse of medicines
u can't do anything when ur child asks for a precious toy
u can't do anything when u hav one quilt and 5 faimly members to sleep in
u can't do anything when u hav to take the rejected fruits for ur faimly as so called "for a change sweet"
u can't do anything when a person in a car shows his frustration on u even when u havn't done anything
why the RS1 increase in kerosene oil changes their home budget totally
why lord why
i always keep on asking this question from the almighty now and again
but sometimes his silence kills me................
