Fading Health: Disparity’s Toll

Fading Health: Disparity’s Toll

In Southern realms of sun-soaked lands,
Where tranquility and heat embrace,
Amongst the gentle Southern breeze,
Lies a tale of struggle, in health’s disgrace.

Amidst the magnolias’ fragrant bloom,
Where history intertwines with strife,
Lies a haunting truth that can’t be denied—
In the South, health’s battle comes to life.

From Alabama’s plains to Mississippi’s delta,
Fueled by flavors rich, yet largely unkind,
The South succumbs to ailments aplenty,
In this story of wellness left behind.

On the Eastern shores, a different scene,
Where wellness flourishes, the coast alive,
From Massachusetts to Georgia’s grace,
Health’s beacon shines, a vibrant strive.

In New England’s haven, a pursuit of fitness,
Where steps are taken, with resolve in hand,
The East Coast thrives, a testament strong,
To living well, united in this band.

Though the divide persists, a tale of two,
From Southern woes to Eastern bliss,
Let us seek solutions and bridge the gap,
To ensure health for all, lost in abyss.
