union by Morgan D Hafeleshe said,
"we have workers rights now
we don't need them anymore."
where do you think
those rights came from?
they start here.
where does it stop? 03/01/2011 Author's Note: to the state workers in Wisconsin and anywhere else unionized workers are being threatened with being broken and losing bargaining power, i support you! if you fall, it will probably just be the first domino in a long line. stay strong

Posted by Anita Mac on 03/02/11 at 08:21 AM Way to speak up, Morgs. Well done. |
Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 03/04/11 at 09:33 PM I'm with George about the short memories. Your short poem makes me think how short sighted these people are. |
Posted by Glenn Currier on 03/06/11 at 02:00 PM Thanks for taking a stand in union with those brave workers. I fear you are too right about the dominoes. |
Posted by Charlie Morgan on 03/07/11 at 06:47 PM ...yeah, where do it stop?, eh? good write morgan. |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 05/06/11 at 02:10 AM I distinctly remember hearing and reading about this in the press. Morgan, you definitely capture a piece of the drama in your poem here. We must never let the politicians forget that we pay their salaries. |
