Replying to a comment on:

Truths (Free verse) by Nicholas Jones

Sometimes I can be honest with myself And look for explanations in my past - No socialist commitments can destroy My guilt at being of the middle class. Some people dig for coal far underground While I write footnotes that are thesis bound I contribute no economic gain, Secure nothing for the workers by hand or brain - I know the fourth clause always was the best But joined the party after it was lost.

Long live the reads, the hammer, and cabbage soup? well the thinkers and the drinkers at least.
