The whip cracks overhead
but no one flinches.
We will not give inches
when barely able to afford bread.
The fallacy of the quiet quit
is laden by oppression.
Neglect of salary concession
makes you unfit.
Rather you quiet fire
when one acts their wage.
You'd prefer to upstage,
pay less with a new hire.
Don't shriek about being loyal
when you won't return it in kind.
Production and profit renders you blind.
Terminate partaking in senseless toil.
