Jonathan Casteel Poem
People are money obsessed,
To the point that if your not rich you lack success,
Looking down on someone who has different priorities,
And making them feel like they're in the minority,
When did the measure of success come from the size of your bank account,
Instead of the measure of the person you amount?,
Society has deemed that people can live on minimum wage,
Even though it below the poverty line and makes them feel they're stuck in a cage,
Why should they care if people struggle to survive,
As long as they have a big house and fancy cars to drive,
It's time for the system to change,
And an increase in the minimum wage range.

Jonathan Casteel Poem
As we strive,
The violence continues on,
Sending innocent people on the run,
People expect this violence to change,
But won't accept a new negotiation range,
This is nothing new,
Except for the very few,
Who will do whatever it takes,
To get there fair shake,
The problem is these few will never be satisfied,
And want to be vilified.
