Is it justice to be rich,
Or injustice, ain’t it a bitch,
I live in a world without life,
I wish that I got married & had a wife…
Its injustice to have no job,
And to find one is very hard,
Then the government with taxes,
Does of me every year rob…
Is it karma or justice,
To live with stress,
To try to be happy,
To desire to be free,
To talk to God on bended knee,
To love those that do in return love me…
Or again, is it injustice to have to scrimp & save,
To live in this world of ours like a knave,
Stealing from the rich & keeping what we steal,
This last paragraph is not what I feel,
But I’m starting to wonder if into theft & such I might cave…

As Pat dun sed - 'thou shalt not steal.'
As a corollary, Two - 'shalt not covets' ...
Most of my adult life I managed to obey these 3 ...
But, just the other nite, I told my niece, Bernie - I AM NOW GUILTY OF 'ENVY!'
As I do my job, delivering 'scrips' - I now question WHY - all these hundreds, thousands maybe, of Rich suckers live in Mansions - 1/2 Mil $ or more - and I am relegated to 'Trailer Trash?'
WHY? justice vs. Injustice - am I not Worthy?
Did I not Obey all the rules - pay my taxes - go to Chuch - Volunteer in the Choir for 16 years! figured out it was over 4,000 hours of "Making a Joyful Noise Unto The Lord" - and yet, like you, I am but a Pauper!
"God Bless the J-O-B! Workin' fer 'the Man' - "Yes-sir! Who-sir? Me-sir?
Could it be that all those mansion-dwellers are JUST - better 'Ass-Kissers?'
Or - THIEVES? LIARS? Silver-Spoon recipients?
I DUNNO! But the truth is - it PISSES ME OFF!
Like PEEWEE dun sed - keep on keepin' on - C'est la Vie!
Peace - DUDE - Peace ... TomKat Cuz.
The deck is stacked
Every day
Our Wallet's attacked
But we control
Just how we feel
Someone smarter than me said
Thou shalt not steal.

I understand where you are coming from, I live on a fixed income...there's always more month than there is money. I have faith things will get better and I pray they do for you too.

One part of My "formal" dinner prayer is: "Lord watch over the ones I love, and especially the ones who love me."
