Shackles

the only thing about slavery
that has ever been abolished
is the term
slaves in the world today
are now referred to as employees and consumers
and most of whom are shackled by luxurious standards of living
out of balance with the physical, philosophical and spiritual levels of refinement
required to support the wealthier lifestyles
common folly, vice and vulgarity have formed the chains and shackles
on the souls of todays affluent society
