occupy wall street

by Mary Frances Spencer

us 99 percenters
even those in denial

looking for
coexistence
the re establishment
of the middle

class
the chance for
peace fulfillment
bills paid
health

simple requests have
virtual power

dollars gotta flow
fairly
so simple

bank fees ridiculous

tv obsolete
turn it off

listen see hear
real reality

1 percent toasting
golden
bubbly

as we walk
below

in the streets

Author's Note: I am very inspired by this uprising or movement of people from all walks and trades trying to protest and question what the h*** happened to our country! I hope we can all come together to find mutual peaceful solutions to share our blessings and work TOGETHER to help those in need, to find work and to go forward with POSITIVE intentions! Namaste MFS

I hope so, but I've never been an optimist. I dig all the energy of the people trying to make a difference though, and I definitely dig this piece.

Wow, love it. there is this occupy everything going on all over america right now. i wonder if it has spread to other countries yet. we can't keep bailing out the ones who have it all while we slowly decay.
