Those and Them
Those, who work this country,
ride private planes and limousines
or other cars for hire.
Them, who make the country work,
drive big rigs and pick-up trucks
and actually perspire.
Those, on their high-cost carbon commutes,
make jokes about them.
Looking down on flyover country,
those ugly jokes are spewed out loud;
Complete disdain for the bovine crowd.
They, being them, just keep on working
and loving to live life.
Those, whose schemes victimized them,
and caused so much anguish and strife,
are amazed that
They, being them,
Forgave.
