Heroes to Zeroes

Sick of it

By Robert CardwellPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Deprived of sleep and resources, we fought for you during the pandemic;

Hailed as heroes with messages so generic.

Three years later, the world’s back to the same old shit,

Healthcare workers murdered, slapped, harassed, and bit;

All our sacrifices were forgotten, be a little empathetic.
