Just Asking
There’s another run
Forming outside,
You know, the free
Tee shirts, buttons,
Bottles of water,
Dogs dressed in
Human clothes,
Everyone with the
Best of intentions,
But do they ever
Wonder where the
Money goes,
Do they question
The numbers,
Think about results,
Or does the chance
For a picture in the paper
Make common sense
Irrelevant,
Like Haiti,
After all the money
Raised, pledged, promised,
Why are the people
Still living in tents and ditches,
Or was that last year And the shirts long
Past passé.
