I'm told by many
"we are making history"
just a few years later
than all the rest
"Things are going to change"
they tell me
with with a pat on the back
while I stand here
with no money in my pockets
trying to better myself
while incurring massive debt
for my education
and selling video games
for my occupation
to mothers of 5
who remains unemployed
while going to school for free
in hopes to open their mind
as freely and easily
as they opened their legs
I guess that's a hard lesson
for me to learn
nothing
will ever be easy
fair
or free
in this land
we call our own
