Us + Them
#1
We

Being a member of the free market
as a disabled worker
is swimming up stream
then reaching a water fall.

Climbing the wet cliffs of stigma,
justifying the climb.
People wait for me 
to slip and fall.

I've been climbing for ten years now, 
I swear I'll stand tall. Reality
puts my delusions to shame
grounded in struggle and pain.

It's just so sad to see my peers forgotten
on the street, while I know tonight 
I'll wrap myself in cotton.

My joy, my kindness, my empathy,
an act of resistance. Telling
my friends your not crazy,
they're just afraid.

In America you're either 
Us or them.

In God we trust,
I hope he makes
us love again.
Only one thing is impossible for God: To find any sense in any copyright law on the planet.
