A poem about winners and losers within globalization.
In a world where the consumer welcomes difference
Will they also accept change?
In a world of pounds and pence
Does globalization have a range?
Higher demands for ‘wants’
Outweigh the basic ‘need’
“I’m bigger than you!” taunts
A brainwashed planted seed
“Buy! Buy!”
“Sell! Sell!”
Whom shall we today deny
Daily becomes another’s hell
“I’m alright Jack!”
As I look down on you
Read between the printed black
Life shouldn’t be this true!
