Nov 2016
Capitalism
In every corner of the Earth
Tower the monster’s factories
Imparting souls with numeric worth
Harvesting souls in battery
Every hope and every dream
In chains, incarcerated
It's a paradox that few bellies bulge
While all the rest are emaciated
The capitalists control our time
They made and manned the clock
The capitalist puts the worker
Between a hard place and a rock
Harnessing forces of nature
For nature’s own destruction
There is a special ineptitude
In capitalist construction
But this creation is no fixity
Its rules we can transcend
Capitalism becomes dangerous
Only when we believe it has no end
