It is easy, perhaps all too easy, to forget that the world of work, the world of labor, of those who own and those who do not, is not a natural order. It is not just the way it is. It is the way we have made it. Next time you're riding the train, or the bus, or sitting in your car on the way to work take a look around you. In this segment from the United States of Poetry Thylias Moss and Ismail Azim El take us through a day in the life, a life not ours, a life we may not know. “The United States of Poetry” was directed by Mark Pellington and produced by Joshua Blum and Bob Holman for Washington Square Films. Bob Holman is the proprietor of the Bowery Poetry Club in New York City. For more visit: www.worldofpoetry.com and www.bowerypoetry.com.
