For Them
A Poem About Our Work Americans give their entire lives, to bosses who don’t care about them. We adjust our lives to make room for 40 plus hours devoted to them.

Respect For Liberty
Rispetto Poem by Chris Bunton Liberty is a woman, hard to be held. To the fearful, timid man, her flesh seems cold. It’s hard for them to live, where no rules are spelled.
