Haiti

 

 

Long ago, Haiti was a slave trading haven.

Then, they said “no” to white mans’ invasion.

Nations around feared their slaves would rebel.

So they isolated Haiti and said it was hell.

No education or goods could reach the land.

Western nations divorced them from all living man.

Then, they blamed Haiti for being separate and poor.

Disasters played havoc, earthquakes and more.

Haiti has now been marginalized, at best.

They are the poorest nation in the west.

Hopefully, people are becoming aware--

It’s time for compassion and medical care.
