They Kicked Out Delta Because They Didn'T Want and Still Don'T Want Change

The symbol delta means change Monroe, LA was the kickoff place For Delta Airlines and Monroe, LA Kicked it off to Atlanta, GA. Isn't That deranged? And we wonder Why we never had and/or lost Economic growth. Well in 1942, before I was born, The people of Monroe told Delta, So long goodbye take a long flight, To Atlanta, GA. Well that is what Monroe,LA does to potential workers, So long farewell, go to Dallas, TX, Houston, TX, Atlanta, GA, and other Parts of the country or the state. 1942 marks the beginning of shame To this city's name. They kicked out Delta, me, classmates, and family, Because they don't want change, And keep most people in leadership Here who are backwards, selfish, And don't want change. They kicked out Delta because They don't want Monroe to grow. Now the economy goes from Sluggish to not moving anymore Because they kicked Delta Along with me and many other Clean out the door. wrote 12-5-10

Today local governments seem to be jumping through all sorts of hoops to promote economic growth and job development, Nicole. Big mistake kicking Delta over to Atlanta when it could have been such a boon to Monroe's economy. Outstanding poem that expresses justified angst! Best wishes, Carolyn
