I Accuse

I accuse

Bankers who compulsively their creditors lure
Bid them colossal loans and obscure
To erect fantasies and a castle in Spain forge
Later arise manacled with a dolor mortgage

Employees who secretly squeeze through
Evacuate their jobs unattended and eschew
Occupy hours galore in cafés gossiping
With prolonged queues jilted lingering

Doctors who diagnose organic diseases
Shirk fragile,grief-stricken souls 
Administer drugs to accrue vulnerability
Burden their expenses and nurture insanity

Entrepreneurs who hatch gigantic edifices
Reap colossal sums of almighty dollars
Abjure to construct a hovel for the beggary
To harbor their rat-infested despondency

Yet could medication be of any use 
To what a whole epoch has abused ? 

           Abdelwaheb Dhaou.
