By Bernie Bell
BUY THIS! BUY THIS! BUY THAT!
TRY THIS! TRY THIS! TRY THAT!
DO THIS! DO THIS! DO THAT!
I WON’T!
I won’t buy a massive telly
I won’t pay £300 for a gizmo
That jiggles my legs about.
And I WON’T have a holiday
On a massive Cruise Liner.
WHY?
There’s Covid, and a Cost of Living Crisis
Though the Ad-men and the Money-men
Want us to act otherwise
Contradictions.
Extreme wealth.
Extreme poverty.
In one land.
Contradictions.
Stepping back in time.
We need to seek balance.
