Unending (Titled by Clement @ lyme)

If the living walk but go nowhere
And talk but mean nothing
If life costs less than a car ride or a mobile phone
And priced as a function of poverty
If survival hangs by a thread
And it is surely gonna snap in a moment or two
If the survivors have none to share their survival
And loneliness tails them like shadow
If surviving is at the cost of self-dignity
And violation leaves you bare
