The Poetic Peasant
@poeticpeasant.bsky.social
Poet with a pen forged in struggle. Writing verses that expose the cracks in the system, and giving a voice to the silenced.
Pinned
The system’s chains cut like knives, it’s clear
They thrive on struggle, feed on fear
I got words and I’ll make ’em fight
Spitting truth til wrong turns right

Thru these lines I’ll make plain
The greed, the hurt, the endless pain
I’m here to fight, I’m here to write
For those in shadow out of sight
The rich keep rising and the poor stay low

While their voices get lost in the status quo

The gap is getting wider, the fight feels near

A spark must ignite since the divide has become clear

The system is a ladder but the rungs are greased

And only a chosen few get to climb to the feast

But as our voices get louder and our words turn to screams

We'll break down the tower to build up our dreams

He marched in the streets, he spoke with fire
For the worker’s hand and the farmer’s desire
Not just black and white, but the haves and have nots
He fought for the people the system forgot
A great man of courage, his vision was clear
He carried the dream we still hold dear

The rent goes up, the bills don’t wait

But the profits get hoarded at the highest rate

I know that I’m worth more than they’ll ever see

But the system is designed just to keep us on our knees

Another day another dollar is what they say

But it's been 10 years and I still make the same pay

Falling further behind because the bills don't go away

Just chasing the carrot being dangled every day

How long can they bleed us dry?

How long till we question why?

The hands that build and the hearts that ache

Need to rise up so the system will break

Our dreams get taxed while our voices get hushed

Rules, profits, metrics, quotas get rushed

While the coffee is brewing, the emails stream

And the grind eats away at our hopes and dreams

You work all day under the burning sun

Building dreams for someone else’s fun

They hold the keys, they write the rules

While we break our backs, playing their fools

They tax the air we breathe and charge for every dream

Sell us the cure we need and poison every stream

The schools are breaking down, the rents are running high

While promises of progress turn to empty lies

Chains of capital, a silent game

Stacked against those without a name

The rules are written, the dice are thrown

But the house always wins what it’s never owned

They buy the laws, they own the land

They built their empires with burdened hands

We see the cracks, we feel the strain

While they profit from our endless pain

They sit on thrones at unreachable heights

While workers push through endless nights

They say work harder and then point the blame

But the ladder's broken so it's all just a game

The scales don't tip, they're bolted tight

The rich grow richer while we fight

Their castles stand on broken dreams

While the world tears apart at its seams

Beneath the same sky, but worlds apart

One lives in luxury, one breaks their heart

The gap gets wider, the struggle stays

But hope burns bright through the darkest days

Goods are cheaper, but lives are spent

On wages too low to pay the rent

Capital flows where the profits grow

But leaves behind the seeds of woe

It’s a game they say we all can play

But the rules aren’t the same at the end of the day

From penthouses high to the cracks in the street

The gaps grow wider where the two worlds meet

We’re born into the world with dreams so wide

But the road we walk depends on the divide

Some start on the ladders, climbing with ease

While others face walls, begging on their knees

It’s more than one story, it’s layers of pain

The roads we walk are never the same

But when we stand together, hand in hand

We’re a force they’ll never understand

They pull the strings, we dance along

Sing their anthem, play their song

Invisible chains keep us in line

While they drink champagne and steal our time

The puppeteers, they play their game

And we're the ones who take the blame

Behind closed doors, they write the rules

Making pawns out of fools

They take the power, take the wealth

And leave us scrambling for our health

A warning lost to power's sting

Yet in their halls, they never hear

The rumble of rebellion near

These hands, they built the world you see

From broken dreams and misery

We raised your towers, forged your steel

But none of us can share the meal

Factories hum, and the sweat pours down

While suits sip wine in the heart of town

They set the rules, we pay the price

Living to work, while our dreams we sacrifice
