Solid middle class he is
always has been
always will be
until tomorrow
on the highway
in the rain this bus
topples over
on his Dodge Durango.
He will never walk
or work again.
In six months or a year
his savings will be gone.
He will be for life
a ward of the state
and people will
forever feed
and bathe him for
the minimum wage
a sum he always said
folks like these
were worth.
