Supplemental Income…

With fuel prices skyrocketing though the ionosphere,

I seem to know; yes I am here to tell you that I fear,

We will all have to get an extra job, just to be here…

Food prices will go up, as truck drivers raise their rates,

Can’t blame anyone, other than those countries that produce,

Me, my jeep just sits, using a company truck, to buy produce,

Fill it one week, no usage for the next two, the way to reduce…

Guess this little poem is a treatise on the way of the world today,

I know very little about, just what the computer screen does say,

So take my opinion with a grain of salt, or a gallon of gas,

So very expensive, both they are,

I take my responsibility herein as from the gods, a task…
