The gold miner does not share in the gold
He gets what he gets does what he is told
And digs for the pigs until he gets old
Having been bought and sold: out in the cold

Still though the gold mine owner does not share
Where he is going he will not need it there

A fine parable that applies to all who would enrich themselves on the back of working people.

A reflection of old misery. History is dusty with mans inhumanity to man. It still happens despite the age of civilization. Will probably happen as long as we inhabit this world. This reminds us how far we need to go still. That's the job of all of us. To be the conscience of our world. Great jobe Steve. Bob
