WHO CARES

WHO CARES

Writers’ block
Nothing new to say
What’s the use?
Nobody listens
Nobody cares

Why should I care?
I have mine
Three pensions
A big home on two acres
So why should I care.

Millions unemployed
What’s it to me
I’m retired
Don’t need a job.
I’m on easy street
So why should I care.

No health insurance?
Can’t afford to get sick
What’s it to me?
I have Medicare
So why should I care

Two endless wars
Thousands killed and maimed
I care, but what can I do?
Just carp and complain
What’s the use?
Nobody is listening
Nobody cares.

I post to my blog
No one reads it.
Maybe my classmates will.
I’ll give it a try
