Gone

I blame the system.
Politicians and leaders.
Management executives.
It's been in the works for years.
There could have been a better way,
to avoid so many tears.

No other skills learned
while I worked on the line.
No other way known,
lost wages and homes.
Payin' into my pension,
I sweat away years at a time.

Typical politicians politely debated
as my life's pension evaporated.
Lulled by their sweet promises
like a nursery rhyme.
Guess I've been incorporated
by a greed never to be sated.
