Fuck This

Fuck This

5.00 a.m, Time to contribute to society, 

Fuck this

Hey society! what can you do for me?

Ordinary life of 9-5, clock in, clock out

Fuck this 

Please don't tell me that this is what life is about

Work and pay bills until the day we die

Fuck this

I will not retreat, and I'll tell you why

Were are meant live, not just make a living

Fuck this

Corporate America keeps winning

Will you fight? Will you stand tall?

Fuck this

I refuse to be another brick in the wall.

You have the power, raise above 

Fuck this

Show these assholes what you're made of.

Thanks man. I enjoyed writing. I love my job don't get me wrong, I just wanted to express how we work hard and come up short so that corporate America can reep the benefits. Tried to give it a Pink Floyd vibe lol. And I am doing wonderfully. How are you?

A poetry on bricks; my favorite.

Ms. Amber, I have been a party too, a couple of impact poetry readings. Most held on a strike-line.  Those were the days. I'd consider it an honor if you'd be my friend.

Amber,
Your poem brought back memories, when years ago I participated in one of the last violent labor strikes In America. The Steel Mill I worked for tried to lock us out  in order to break our Local.  The entire rank and file showed up to protest.  Wackenhut guards (private security) were on company site to great us. Just before a big brawl broke out we taunted the guards with a poetic protest chant to this day I'll never forget.  

I'm tempted to post it, but before I do, I need your approval, as it is quite graphic in content.

Do not hesitate, even for second, if your not comfortable with me doing so.  Its no big deal. 

But those who think poetry has no influence on society, know nothing of poetry at all.
