Commonalities  
[Sonnet III]

wayward, skyward be, the common mass, the lad and lass
populace seen with little, but yea, extremes do clash
but of this, the general public, be I but one of they
and know the proletariat indeed shall have his say

for great counsel, this, the working class can give
for, most often asked, is how to live, and let live?
plebians, these citizenry might oh so very well be…
but there be music in grassy root….if you could but see…

they walk a gentle sphere, these multitudes that so roam
they know well then, where there is hearth, and home
and they close their rank and file, to care for one on one
and they only hope tomorrow, yet again brings the sun

these people, this humanity, this, the working classes
oft then look in mirrored glass of their many masses
