Boycotting table grapes like Caesar Chavez
Organized labor aggravates the rich and the Feds
Why can’t they do as we say - Simon Says?
Gonna end up in prison or dead
The haves and have nots rarely break bread
Masters and slaves no tranquility
Peasants and nobility
God and man
Water and sand
Follow orders and command
No in between
America’s Middle class is the only history’s ever seen
Oligarchs claim power, wealth and domain
No multiple Gods or 15 seconds of fame
All or nothing in human dynamic groups
Everyone can’t be happy or free - here’s proof
Winners and losers fight nail and tooth
Life seems unfair to most as a universal truth
We envy others and desire more than we need
Neglect what we’ve got as we plant and grow seeds
Our kids watch, rinse and repeat
The cycle never ends, as my daughter emulates me
