Globalisation In The Ghetto Poem by Erhard Hans Josef Lang

Globalisation In The Ghetto



The Finns have been reporting in March of 2007
that two Dutchmen had voiced fears through a German mouth-piece,
a number-one trading paper in the world,
that mistakes of the interior market were to jeopardize the future of
the European Union.

The Finnish report was now presented by me, born a German,
living in a cosy far-off corner in the Far East,
in a German translation,
making use of the U.S.-seated internet,
a high-speed instant spy communication state-of-the-art gadget,
invented and first employed by the American Central Intelligence
Agency, then
later on made available for the use of the masses of people and all
our civilian and private communications almost worldwide.

I had chosen to likewise inform both Dutchmen by electrical mail, another
outcrop of the above-mentioned modern instant fast lane
communicating, that
said article, in which the two were mentioned as originators of the
ideas
of liberty the article came to speak of,
was now published for a vast publicity of German readers
on an electronical journal about A World Wholly Without Money under the title of
'Blurringly cut images of the market - on a colourfully painted
background of disarmingly fencing happy-go-lucky-knights of money'.

The electrical mail info being, naturally so
in a commonly globalized ghetto,
first of all a rhetoric one.

Wouldn't someone eventually want to listen up to a contemporary
from outside the fences of the ghettoes
and get up starting to
act up on de-ghettoizing the world
for freeing the world from our dreary lot of serfdom for the money?

There's hope for heavenly changes
with everyone who nods
to the need to change our earthly lots -
on the global scale.

Erhard, wunderbar. I agree with your assessment. Very interesting reading. I don't know that I can share your hope. Sad to say, globilization, the thirst for money, power and influence by the weathy is nothing new. All we have to do is look at European history. And you have so many tourists coming to Germany to view all the wonderful castles and gardens of the results. Things will change. I just don't know how or when it will get better. Of course, we must not give up hope and do more than just hope. Danke sehr for the referral information.
