Ideas, Green

Ideas
Trump 
Labor
It pays,
To be creative
Creativity
Is greener
Than the blue
Collar
Work force
Work is work
Physically
Mentally
Just as tiring
Mind’s drain
Body’s pain
All the same
Only contrast
Is the pay
Ideas,
Change the world
Labor builds
Ideas swarm the office
While labor,
Swarms the field
Golden rings
Calluses
Life
Glamorous
Or rugged
Though
Both are honest
Earned
So it may seem
Ideas
Trump 
Labor,
Blue
Ideas,
Make
Green
