'Mean'nocent

She works her hands to vulnerability,
Under the nose of constant scrutiny.

A negligent government and a reproachful society,
Lead to her quiet servitude and endless poverty.

Inordinate, has it become, her desires for education,
Inadequate, is her income for her family's sustenance.

A disturbed liberty to chase her dreams,
underprivileged to live beyond her means.
