Terence George Craddock Slavery Poems

there has always been an elite class
the coal mine owner with coal miners
in the dark historic working 12 hours

millennia of pain
inflicted agony
echoing back

around 1730 due to wars tribes fought

disrupted by devastating wars
...

under legislature law
what value
is placed
upon human lives?
