Greed



Greed.

Like
King
Canute
playing his
courtiers for
fools, our governments
feed us on fear, whilst
all
the while enriching their coffers, not caring what the
future holds.
Blinkered vision pursues the prize of a golden throne carried to a sea of slogans
to be swallowed by waves of plastic guilt.
Loans and credit cards
enslave us.
God is
counted and
rolled up
in
banks
to be
laundered and polished.
Fools’ folly.
Human
flaw,
greed.
