Change

So corporate outsourced your job today...
It's a miracle you lasted this long anyway...
Change is life and life is change...
Keep repeating that on the firing range...
Where you gonna go, and what exactly are you going to do?
You going to be trapped in your cluttered mind;
wading through the convoluted residue?
You gonna hide from your mortality?
You gonna waste away? 
Don't forget to update your resume...


Our Smoldering Factory Town

Our Smoldering Factory Town
free trade, a brick around
It’s gurgling, swollen neck. Surrounding
gray quiet smolder, evokes, 
Once thriving factory smoke
A Crumbling horoscope
once paid it's worker's, soaked
in quiet desperation.
We are it's rusty antiques
sinking ships on outsourced seas
a swollen, bailout casualty
a fallow field, a dustbowl breeze
While children sew our sneakers
In bananna sweatshops, cheaper
hands can make, children's fate
wont matter, they'll dig deeper.
