Fair Play (an acrostic)

Here's another poem, this one an acrostic. It was written specifically for this month's issue of the Catholic Agitator, and hopefully it will be published.

Food is not a commodity, but a right
All are entitled to shelter at night
I
nequality is a curse to those with power
R
evealing the truth that money breeds cowards

P
eople deserve to be treated as equals
L
ay down all violence: the sword and the shield
A
re not all oppressed when few are free?
You have the power in what you choose to be
