The Worker Poem by Joan Marques

The Worker



Vacillating mind
Infinitely disturbed spirit
Subjugated by continual exposure
To the pretense
That is human nature

Drudging about the apprenticeship
To be distinguished
From manipulation,
And obsessive manifestation
Of childish retaliation

Wondering if spirituality
Will ever be
Or if 'utopia' is its real name
Covered by the trench of shame
Called 'Everyday Reality'...
