Just One Job
By Kelsey Cashman

All our lives
We are told to work.
Chores, school, summer jobs-
Do whatever you can
To make money.
We are told
That having a job
Will lead to a better life-
To a house and food
And paid bills.
But then we grow
And get a job
Or two or three.
Struggling to make ends meet,
Living day to day.
Working long hours
Day after day
No vacations, just overtime.
Living between paydays,
A frugal life.
If everyone was able
To not only
Have a good job,
But also one that
Pays the bills,
We would be
One step closer
To a world of equality,
A world without poverty
And unpaid bills.
