Free Market Fruit Poem by O Anna Niemus

Free Market Fruit



What is free market economics? Loan sharks become
bigger and bigger in the ocean.. with none to protect
the smaller fish.

Soon they are invading countries to grab new markets.

What is the fruit?

flagdraped coffins of the poor returning to Dover Air Force Base
children in burn wards from bombs
no electricity, no water, no homes for 4 million Iraqis
the US regime fighting with others for control of the poppies
and the pipelines
long food lines
evictions
foreclosures
the highest gas prices as petroplutocrat pawns
are allowed to roam

As JR has said: capitalism is a primitive economic system
managed by glorified street criminals
