Jan 15th "green and gold"

Ellen Powell writings

Jan 15th 2021 "green and gold" ——I feel the shackles heavy today They weigh me down, take my joy- I don't really ask for much okay- But someday I hope not to be employed- I toil away the hours, they are not used for my own- For you see I'm on someone else's dime- Through my emotions it is really shown.- They take something you can never reclaim, time.- I have spent years of my life talking to folks- Selling things they don't even need- Getting them to buy it all with my jokes- For this is how I have survived the capitalist greed.- While I will never Escape capitalism's hold- I hope to learn to use it for my own, if I may be so bold—— 《Check out all I do at ellenpowellwritings.com 》 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ellenpowellwritings/support
