<h2> Poems by Ingrid Iverson.</h2>
<h2 style="text-decoration: underline;"> The Poverty Rate </h2>
<p> The poverty rate </p>
<p> Below eye level</p>
<p> Where no one looks </p>
<p> What about those</p>
<p> Above the poverty rate</p>
<p> But still bellow eye level?</p>
<p> The poverty rate </p>
<p> Considers </p>
<p> The desperate few </p>
<p> Doesn’t consider </p>
<p> The struggling many </p>
<p> Consider them </p>
<p> It rises </p>
<p> And rises </p>
<p> And rises </p>
<p> Until </p>
<p> You must notice </p>
<p> Until </p>
<p> It rises </p>
<p> And rises </p>
<p> And rises </p>
<p> To eye level </p>
<br> <br> <br>
<h2 style="text-decoration: underline;"> Poverty is:</h2>
<h3> Not having </h3>
<p>- Food </p>
<p>- Clothes </p>
<p>- Shelter </p>
<p>- Money </p>
<h3> Not being </h3>
<p>- The kind of person who gifts something to someone else </p>
<p>- The kind of person who obtains a higher education </p>
<p>- The kind of person who affords luxuries </p>
<p>- The kind of person who has new clothes, soap, and hot water </p>
<p>- The kind of person who walks into a store and buys something </p>
<p>- The kind of person who doesn’t worry 24/7 about what they will go without </p>
<h3> Not knowing </h3>
<p>- What to do </p>
<p>- How to get out </p>
<p>- Who will help </p>
<p>- Whether there is any hope left </p>
<br> <br> <br>
<h2> Poems by Anika Lindberg</h2>
<h2 style="text-decoration: underline;"> Unsatisfied Needs </h2>
<p> Oh, the jab in my heart </p>
<p> When passing the restaurant </p>
<p> Such fancy foods </p>
<p> A gem to my hungry stomach </p>
<br>
<p> I look to my mom </p>
<p> She shakes her head, no </p>
<p> I barely have any </p>
<p> We don’t have enough </p>
<br>
<p> Skipping to the store </p>
<p> Hoping for a meal </p>
<p> But only four person meals </p>
<p> For our family of 9 </p>
<br>
<p> I, a twelve-year-old </p>
<p> The eldest of many </p>
<p> Naturally give it </p>
<p> To my younger siblings </p>
<br>
<p> But I forgo my growth</p>
<p> For their health </p>
<p> Sometimes </p>
<p> You can’t sacrifice</p>
<br> <br> <br>
<h2 style="text-decoration: underline;"> Nobody’s Help </h2>
<p> Nobody </p>
<p> I repeat </p>
<p> Nobody helped me </p>
<br>
<p> The suffering I endured left me </p>
<p> Scarred </p>
<p> Nobody helped me out </p>
<p> And kept me </p>
<p> From passing this fate </p>
<br>
<p> Not a single person offered me </p>
<p> A small chance </p>
<p> To sustain the optimism </p>
<p> That since has left me </p>
<br>
<p> I now love </p>
<p> And feel </p>
<p> But nobody helped me </p>
<p> Save the life of </p>
<p> Another poor child </p>
<p> Doomed to poverty </p>
