colours trend like everything else
fashion struts its podium assertions
and those exploited stitching fingers
bleed, to dye garments crimson
our newly minted ‘catwalk favourite’
perpetuated by en vogue magazine’s
wilful incredulity of criminal ignorance

if ever there was a reason to write a dedication, you just hit upon that reason .. it is almost impossible to comprehend how in the 21st century so many individuals lost their lives & as many again were injured through no fault of their own but through the greed of others maybe and the age old habit of cutting corners to make a few cents more ...................... N
incomprehensible!
what we perpetuate, in the name of greed
generation after wasted, generation...
Thank you for giving voice to the disdain
I failed to capture in my scribbled effort
in your impassioned comment, dear Poet
It’s not only ‘an eye for an eye’ that makes the whole world blind, it’s also greed that makes us oblivious and blinds us to reality. A superb post indeed.
Amen!
Brilliant Mek.
ah my kind hearted friend
once more you've graced me
with your generous support
humbly, I thank you!
Well done, L.B.
We are loaded with "criminal ignorance" here.
thank you Jerry
yes, if the universe had a court
many would have to face that charge,
when we can google search
our path in life, there's little defence
for the indifference, so many of us
cocoon our existence within, ever day...
Yes so much greed and injustice abound. Thank you for sharing.
thank you for reading
and for choosing to voice your support
Boom! Thank you
Awesome! glad you liked it
With a mind like yours how could I not, plus deep inside I want society to jump overboard!
