once upon a time since condemned...
in a less greedy materialistic world
when greed greed capitalism greed
had not plague infested an entire world...
a man went to work earned...
not a fair slice of the pie slaved
for! but at least a liveable wage paid!
while his wife at home the children raised!
twenty first century both parents are worked...
to the bone! but not enough money is made!
by both parents working for all bills to be paid?
without overtime couples are on a downward slide?
rundown depressed tired being tired extremely tired?
is a when it comes to children! luxury parents cannot afford?
Terence G. Craddock (afterglows echoes of starlight)
