Smothered

Belching corruption that calcifies our air.
Rolling in bills that elevate them above despair.
Writing cheques for future gens who are unable to repay.
Pity there is no remorse for all they do and say.

Suits talking cheap cause it’s all they got.
Another market buyout turning good to rot.
Fueling greed with ever increasing disparity.
Choking on smog that they claim harms nobody.

Dose of deception festering in form.
Carcass is a misnomer that we can’t reform.
Gorging chips with data stolen from it’s cot.
What they have they will keep but ensure that we do not.
All to keep these scales tipped in their favour.
For this inequality is their desired flavour.
Yet no one is able to resolve this crooked game.
So instead these shady souls misdirect with fame.
Casting beams of light onto distracting peeps.
However right beneath the surface this whole system reeks.
Propped up by fashions better left to fade.
Sadly these oligarchy types have long since been bought and paid!

Drowning in an ocean of detritus and debris.
Burning out eyes from every dazzling screen.
Suppressing urges to right this ship gone wrong.
Problem is this pyramid has existed for so long.

And it’s grown fat with every person claimed.
These corpos have decided who gets paid.
So all are indebted until past when they die.
Don’t think…
These entities will ever give a shit about the little guy.
