The Day

The day will come when I can sleep late and write my own paycheck.I won't have to hesitate about calling in stating that I'll be a little late. The day will come when I won't have to listen to conversations of a late night rendezvous and who's scheming who and what will they do.When they find out about boo...Theday will come. I won't have to deal with the workplace being divided into various cliques.Cliques A and B means you're okay and you're on on your way .C and D mean you're just a body for a rotating position that will soon transition. The day will come I won't have to work filled with frustration inside. While the children go by the wayside. They're in the box for a variety of dysfunctions. A pill here a pill there ... There are pills everywhere. The treatment plan is to keep you here.Without the kids where would the money come from? It's a funny thing when people talk about that thing called money. The day will come when I can thank the employers for giving me a drive to do better for myself. Working for the man won't bring wealth. The day will come when I can go into any store and I won't have to shop on a clearance rack. The day will come when I can sow seeds back into the community that help raise me. The day will come where the sky is the limit to all of the possibilities that my mind can conceive. The day will come .That day is now . The day is here.
