Pockets filled with stones
We sink in the same sad river
If at the end of a week of labor
You can’t afford to deliver
Ten percent to Church or charity,
Fifteen percent salted away,
Seventy-five percent remaining
To fashion yourself a happy life
Regardless of political persuading
There is nothing here for you.
