I wrote this last year I think

[caseyjo]

Over yonder...across the sea
Mesha stands in the factory
Spinning the thread & weaving the loom
Tiny child in basket.. alone... in the light of
the moon

14 hrs a day with very little pay
not to mention another baby on the way...while...
here I stand in front of the mirror
designer clothing mean more to me than Mesha
& her family.

Things, more things in my shopping cart
Capitalism my focus, but Iv'e lost my heart
Oh so sweet the american dream...Is it really
really what it seems?

It would be nice if I could search my soul, but
I lost it a long , long time ago..By Kathy C (caseyjo)
