The Gospel According To Continuing Improvements
(SHOP FLOOR)
There stands the multitude
many heads like stepping stones
hearts that beat a depressed rhythm
row upon row upon row.
The square in reverberation
sways to a pungent tone
unity upon each and every lip!
“We’ll strike for evermore.” They chant.
“Stay out for eternity.” They quip!
(BOARDROOM)
“We’ll break the buggers,
confuse them one and all
split them down the middle
then take them as they fall.
For working man, to himself
an enigma a fool for all to see,
no adversary in this world given freedom
no master as yet willing
to give the key!”
