Parentless People


#alliteration #writing


Parentless people packaged as products for purchase, with prices set by predatory profiteers pickpocketing the poorly paid payrolls of present-day peasants. Protest is pointless, poverty persists.

Yes the millennial dream, how good does it seem?

Drowning in an electronic media determined to sell you a trip on Expedia, determined not to let you pick up an encyclopedia.

Coming from common core, you craft a chart to crawl your course through college — you’re caught. Committed to the crisis of a crippling career choice.

Now you’re a specialized slave, unengaged and paid for the long toil of foggy-brained days.
