Stumbling Blocks
Title: Stumbling Blocks
Bureaucratic barriers obstruct their way,
Hungry families, seeking aid each day,
Knocked off the path to a better life,
By stifling rules causing endless strife.
Yearning for a $400 food benefit,
They stand perplexed, trapped in a bureaucratic pit.
Oh, how the system’s demands keep them bound,
Leaving their voices unheard, their pleas drowned.
