Analysis of The Fruit Without The Tree
Empowering the indolent,
the fox is now inside
The vermin on the loose,
the truth now plagued by lies
The takers stalk the givers,
those on the dole now scream
“We want what you have worked for,
—the fruit without the tree”
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
