Poems
Jun 2021
Workaday
You can rake yourself
over fire and over stone
but they'll still punish you
should you stay home.
And you can bleed out
when they ask for blood
but you'll not find justice
you'll not earn love.
You can trade every second
of every day for an inch of floor
but when you ask what's enough
the answer will always be, "More."
Listen: They don't really care
and you won't change their mind.
Everyone knows it's a living
but it still feels like a bind.
You can spit out teeth standing
there's no place left to sit
they'll not give up a chair
because they don't give a ****.
