The clues are everywhere,
but the leaders have thrown out
all the magnifying glasses,
and are directing global traffic
with closed eyes.
The multinationals
dump the evidence
of their transgressions
into the sea.
Humanity suffers
the repercussions.
The billionaires gloat,
blaming the poor
for their resulting misfortune.
For Susan's prompt at Midweek Motif: evidence or clues.
Oh yes, it's all our fault! The world is gone topsy turvey. They may gloat all the way to the bank today, but they will not be able to buy their way out of the result of blindness! Good one.
ReplyDeleteBlindness is the disease. You've hit it rightly.
ReplyDeleteSo sad what we have done. Even more sad is the denying of the evidence.
ReplyDeleteWell said.
ReplyDeleteBoth the clues and the evidence are laid bare. Nice one Sherry. Happy you dropped by my blog
ReplyDelete❤much loveđź’›
Very true Sherry! It is a sad shame indeed!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, how true this is. Those who are poor always take the blame for those who are bloated with greed.
ReplyDeleteThe clues are indeed there, yet the leaders in their ignorance close their eyes.
ReplyDeleteSad, I tell you.
We are not humans; we are consumers who work for cents while the millionaires laugh at us.
ReplyDeleteI keep imagining one day the consumers of the world will reject every one of those products and end this! Pipe dreams, and yet!
ReplyDeleteA sad but true state of affairs.
