Bread, Politics and Toil

Bread, Politics and Toil
 
Workaday toiler circles endlessly
In perpetual diligence till night descends
His world determined in political arenas 
Slight of speech, spinning discord and toxic ambrosias
Promises lost to hard fought revolution
Bleak skeletons hoeing scraps of dignity
Under laughing eyes of greed’s compensation
Greeting perpetuities golden mourning orb
