Click hereTHE AVERAGE AMERICAN ACHILLES HEEL
one day a blue-collar family
with an 80,000 thousand house
and two new cars sitting
in front of the garage
of which a yacht
sits next to it
with swirling letters
*destiny*
in beautiful design
at a time
when there used
to be a blue-collar family
that used to live next door
for seven years
until massive layoffs
at a large company
couldn't produce a profit
and pulled out
where workers overseas
liked to work
does indeed mean
that when it's taken
for granted
by being lazy
also has its
place in regards to
*destiny*
