Excerpt from “CrossRhodes” by Author Lindsey F. Rhodes

House Rules

Punch the clock just to earn a wage
Locking up righteous ones confined into a cage
From pre-maturation to the elderly; forever a slave
With little or nothing left to bury but an empty soul in a grave
The expiration date on humanity is being accelerated
Random deaths that is inexplicable; often controlling and calculated
Drowning in the deep of the cesspool called debt
While lost souls stare into the wind as they constantly wept
The game is ongoing with no means to an end
Only to find out that the money is missing and one cannot cash in
The light is feint yet it is starting to come on
Enough of the chitter-chatter; time to take some cerebral and physical action
