People always trying to get the paper
and define their worth
in numbers.
The shit we have to go through
just to get a few extra quid
for a bit of petrol
so we can actually get past
someone
in the fast
lane
without going crazy.
Up at THE SPAR
the druggies hang
out most
days counting their change
in their hoodies
while the real criminals in parliament
don’t need to cover
their faces
when they can rob any decent human
being
of what they make
– quite easily –
and get away with it.
It’s simple economics really
(let me preach
this bit):
when you give someone a currency
and a means to be better
than
someone
else
all the morals
get disregarded
the more people begin to rely
on money
and obsess
over
when they’re next getting paid
and the more people are willing to sell
off what’s
left
of their identities
lie / cheat / rob / kill /do
whatever
it takes
within their power
to get to the highest point in greed.
