WHOA THERE!

WHOA THERE! - an artwork by T Newfields

Yep, I can tell you why so many people are starving
& addictive chemicals are consumed.

I know precisely why war rages
across so many parts of our planet
& why millions of people are being screwed.

The needs of the many matter little:
what counts are the profits of the few!

In the dark night of our souls,
we've forgotten global stewardship
& long-term sustainability,
focussing on short-term pay offs
accruing to the glitterati.
