My Sod it…sorry, Sonnet…but then again….

How do I love thee O Society

Which shelters me from cradle to the grave,

Provides us with lifetime security?

-With warmth and gratitude for all you gave.    

The fellowship of humankind, so great

Finally became a cohesive whole;

Large conurbations are cities up late

Evolving into fairgrounds with a soul.

Impostor! thou art an economy

Which ties and hoodwinks me to serve your needs.

Thus I cannot love thee, O perfidy,

I have hard work plus mortgage and this leads

To no less than modern subjugation,

Neutered consumer for the duration…
