John Horvath Jr
He Rides the Company Bus to Work and Back
I bust my butt for six-oh-five a week
and pay twice that much to stay alive.
I guess I am the Prince o’ Debt
and all my worries,
all for which I strive
is so much excess gut, a glut
of workers under management
who think we needn’t more
in order to survive. …
