A Working Class Tool

Depicting the rich getting richer and the poor suffering.

Just A Working Class Tool
We are all getting there.
We felt invincible at first, but weren't
No, life isn't fair.
But struggling seems concurrent.
Blinded by news, media, it's infinite.
Shiney rocks calling to the birds.
Railroading the poor and innocent.
The house is suites and tucked shirts.
And the house almost always wins.
Even if they have to cheat.
They'll go as far to break your shins.
On our back rest uncalloused feet,
The greedy hooves of the asses we wipe.
Building another man's dream.
Our dreams are flushed down the pipe.
They aren't perfect, with uneven seams.
And corruption blocking the light.

Suites..suits.
Not all folk wish to be the shepherd, many are happy being amongst the flock. But, yes, globally the rich become ever richer and the poor multiply.
Again enjoyed the read.
Tis a shame you are not read and reviews more.
Do yo make friend requests and read , review others on here? If not it is a good way to get to know folk.
Good morning

I really like the rawness of the poem. It is as raw as the theme you are writing about. 'The greedy hooves of the asses we wipe.
Building another man's dream.' is my favorite line.

That lone took me an hour to come up with. I wasn't satisfied until that was my final attempt to pull it all together. I wanted to describe something without painting every detail, quick, short, and raw.

A very real depiction of being ground down and that feeling of hopeless forever drudgery about tomorrows...
