Stock Market Goes Higher And Higher
While the average person struggles and worries about the present and also about the future
Stocks go up
And people get richer
While families struggle
Waiting in long car lines
For a box of food
Millions become billions
As the rich rake it in
While families worry
About school at home
No social support
And rising prices
Tech stocks skyrocket
By the minute
Homes out of reach
Except for the few
Billionaires' yachts
Full up the Bay
As families migrate
Far from the jobs
Long train rides
That suck up the day
Lord, where do we go
From here and onward
When, shall I ask
Will things be good
Again
For a hopeful
Man, woman or child
