H2O

Jo Water,

A friend’s a secretary in an ER,

Over night,

Not sat down or had a break in fifteen years,

Just started seven nights in a row schedule,

Hospital not in foreign country,

But good Ole usa!

I have no respect for the place that imagines working my pal who just hit sixty slave hours is A.O.K.

Because It’s Not!

One night she worked her usual,

She lives approximately fifty miles from home seven to three am picked me up and we drove to food bank sixty miles away!

My adopted family makes what a high school kid makes starting into the workforce fifteen an hour,

The last job I had Not,working for me in Nineteen ninety-eight in Mc Donald’s management ‘Swing Shift Manager’ was seven and a half an hour!

She brought me cafinated water,

She said they drink it all night and since I loved water she thought I’d like it!

It could put coffee out of business,

I thanked her and said one Quasqueton,Iowa has the best water it comes from Minnesota,

It costs to much to run water towers anymore so Quasquenton simply goes to another state and and buys it!

I drink it because it’s good and I pay for everything out of my tap or goes down my drain,

That’s why if I have not placed chemicals in it I put it in a.bucket and.dump it out side,

The landlord placed a gage on all the water pipes in the trailer park and recharges us all for that $7 gage a month which is 7×12=84 dollars a year for a seven dollar gage,

I drink water but don’t love it,

The Jo water has a curious back of my tongue taste,

Quasqueton water has no after taste,

Where as the numbnuts that underpayment my adopted family get me steaming mad,

So are we teaching business administration’s that over work the their staff older staff and underpayment them that’s the true American way!

To tired to seek a different job,

Driving at night might kill hood workers off,

Under pay the workers have no choice,

It’s a constant impossible loop!
