If he works for us
in some distant place
to make things
or grow things
or tend things
that make our lives
better,
why is it so hard
for us to pay him
a living wage?
I grew up in Christian fundamentalism, went to hell, came back, became a Presbyterian then a Buddhist Presbyterian, and now I'm a profane Presbyterian Zen Taoist -- not that I'm into labels or anything. Here's what I've learned so far: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

Leather lathers worn
Workers’ feet, the flaps flipped out
Thirsty as parched tongues.
