work
meager pay
dreams once moved you
now they are like
broken wings
barren fields
the people
yes the people who labor
where the rewards are few
know uncertainty
know fear
know hunger
community
working class
civic responsibility moves you
for a few can feed a multitude
loaves and fishes
lilies of the field
the people
yes, the people who care
where rewards are few
easing uncertainty
easing fear
easing hunger
for wherever
two or more are gathered to serve
a community can form
to aid their neighbors
when capitalism fails
