BENDED BACKS
BENDED BACKS

The toil continues by the day,
A must for the man to do.
If not, who shall then feed his kindred?

His back aches from squatting on the boulder for too long.
The heat of the sun cook up his skin
That's what his bended back takes


Sometimes, on bended knees, just so he could feed his kindred.
Whether he bend to lace up or to take up,
it has no effect on he, who has lashes on his bended back.

What shall be done to straighten the crooked?
What shall be done to iron out the wrinkles on his skin?
For without the toils, no toy for his kids
For without the bended back, no food on the table.
