Money Poem by Dr. Ramesh Chandra Mukhopadhyaya

Money



Money and its child Market
are Tungay the one legged Tatar and his son
They ravage the world- they banished the Sun
In the encircling gloom they ravished human heart
They have destroyed the tender values
and their fountainhead=Nature
Instead of the food
They stuff our body mind and soul
with dead leaves from economics
political science philosophy and science
and all that money could manufacture
In a dukedom ruled by the courtiers
Of Greed the world suffers from asphyxia
Co2 has made the blue deep murky
There will be no one to cry from the skies-
Hold!
And scientists have killed Peace and Sleep
They will sleep no more
