A poem I read in Spark.......ITS DEEP SOOOOO CHECK IT OUT!

"MORE THAN A PAYCHECK" by Sweet Honey in the Rock

We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones & family.
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones & family.
We bring asbestosis, silicosis, brown lung, black lung disease.
Radiation hits the children before they really been conceived.

I wanted more pay, but all I've got today is more than I bargained for when I walked through that door.

Workers lend an ear
Its important that you know
with every job there is the fear
that disease will take its toll
if not disease then injury
may befall your lot
if not injury then stress
is going to tie you up in knots.
