Billionaire Fragile Earth

An Economy spirals up in euphoria, enslaving Casinos, Supermarkets, Malls. Lavish and happy hedonists in quicksand, relish in desert of drudgery, not so small. As we dance, an orgy and frenzy of 'Plenty', Mother Earth looks fragile. Thousand channels on TV.... Commercial 'Breaks' bonding ornate families. Fizzy drinks decor, fountains in creams of ice. Chocolates, cheese and clothes in arid paradise. Bourgeois entities consume branded merchandise. As cars update to limousines, jets and fancy yachts, Mother Earth looks fragile. Crass delightful spending, offers on Credit Cards. Useless junkies clutter, unrelenting greed so garish. The rush to get" Freebies".. suffocates a " Freedom".. Like morons, we take care, of our precious kingdom As an empire shops in frenzy, like a thirsty Vampire, Mother Earth looks fragile. Addicted thoughts doomed to oblivion. Smartphones, iPod and Game Consoles. Claustrophobic painted homes, nauseate in stress. Have we forgotten to learn to live with "less"..? Forgotten carefree butterflies...wilderness of peace Forgotten molten glaciers,... wild streams and breeze, Opulence of a Billionaire Earth... Let life go on, billion years of mirth. Anybody listening???" Stuck in the mire of more and more Look, he goes there..... .Another Ferari riding Billionaire... 20th December, 2018 Written originally for Minimalism Poetry Contest of Cecelia Hopkins-Drewer
