CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

seven is supposed to be a holy number, a type of perfection - but now, it has become something else entirely & that is why we scream - no more. #micropoetry #micropoem #poetry #poetrycommunity #blueskypoetry #writing #writingcommunity #author #poem #poet #writer

there’s a burden to the love & many lives un-lived we each carry - hauling the totality of self & in-self over the horizon each morning & night. #micropoetry #micropoem #poetry #poetrycommunity #blueskypoetry #writing #writingcommunity #author #poet #poem #writer

it is morning and I know you have to go and the bed is about to get cold but I think it would be best for one more kiss at the night's bequest and if it should linger a little longer and you find your will weaker and desire. stronger then stay our bodies clearly have something more to say #vss365

it’s dirty work to love yourself when all the world seems intent on finding the cracks in your foundation. #micropoem #micropoetry #poetry #poetrycommunity #writing #writingcommunity #blueskypoetry #poet #poem #author #writer

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

there are many ways a heart can die but one way is always the last things that really aren't that hard get so much harder in time's drift there were things I should have said and done but your heart shaped how I love and I'll always be grateful for that may the earth hold you gently #poetry

THE FRONT LINES AT MIDNIGHT there is a peace & a war that i don’t understand, a mustering of colors alongside quiet contemplation — & i live in it now, confused & distant, but also close enough to taste the gunpowder. #poetry #poetrycommunity #writer #poem #poet #author #writing #blueskypoetry

For those that dug the song back in 1997, here's a killer version. If you're a purist, the song ends at the 5 minute mark. If youn wanna go to church... keep on listening for the next couple minutes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR7k...
