the middle commonplace      poor dears weak of voice           making minimum wage for all the       billionaire investors making up Wall street           holding in servitude    the poor dude trying to pay his          child support with no health care     when he gave his sanity in Iraq. or the single mother          sharing with the desolate faces the disgrace of      going to the food bank:            the land of the free home of the brave            has turned into the home of the rich: oligarchy entrenches,           that is why i gave up     a long time ago. I looked back, once there was a middle class.
