Proud never to have been employed

Next to being rich
the greatest compliment
in our degenerate
and limiting society
is to be called
hardworking.
You are very close
to criminal
if you're known for
shirking.

Yeah, but you don't shirk, do ya?
You seem like a principled, stand-up guy.

Well, most people would call me at the very least a welfare parasite. But parasites are natural, whereas paid labor is not.

Principles and employment do not often go together...

Love your writing style and your blog and website Anthony.
You remind me of a Buddha meets Samuel Beckett guy.
More please.
