Will I Get Paid Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Many are unaccustomed,
To the benefits of discipline.
It's not as if corruption has been hidden,
From inquisitive children.
Or the price that is paid,
To keep crime entertained in their minds...
With each purchase of a video game,
Believing an innocence they will keep maintained.

When money is the focus what do folks expect?
Especially if money is talked about,
With more of it wanted no matter how one gets it.
Or where it comes from to impress,
Those doing their best to pretend having less...
Does not make them depressed.
And there are those who love to leave others,
Feeling 'small' and insignificant.

Many are unaccustomed,
To the benefits of discipline.
Or how a dollar is earned to spend.
With that connected to a work ethic.

'Where is your moral duty?
And feeling of obligation to responsibility? '

~Is that an entitlement?
I've never heard of that before.
How much will I get paid if I should get some? ~
