The Gatherers of Scrap

Gathering scraps
Unproportional numbers
Balance does not exist

Grinding 40 hours to make enough to be broke
Hourly wages- a laughless joke

We are a people who trade in our time
In units of hours
For much needed paper

We are working class slaves
Doing what is needed to survive
We are the gatherers of scrap
