Subsitance has always been enough
Now I want more
I want out of all of this work a day ethic
I want time to get bored again
I loved my life when all the time I had was my own
Now I get $7.00/hr for my time
I stand there for hours at end
Yesterday I stood around for 9hrs
Today I will stand around for 12hrs
doing almost nothing
After the fair I am going to fix my car
I am going to work for UPS $8.00/hr four/five hours a night
I am going to join the union and get good medical/dental
I am going to get another job too
Working in the mornings and afternoons
To save up enough money
Attend community college
Attend college
Get a better Job
By the time I am fifty I will have time again
But I will have forgotten what to do with it
I miss my life
I used to live
I no longer live
Is it worth it ... working for bread and water ??
