Bernard Barclay Poet Narrative

Iran

Iran you have a problem
one of your greatest resource's is oil
but it is a limited resource 
eventually, it will run out

Or if the world changes
to use electric cars
you would be left 
without profits

your economy 
could struggle
have you heard the saying
make hay well the suns shinning

Today your sun is shinning
you dream of going back in time
taking over the country's 
charging a tribute

empires and fortunes
but those times have past
people would fight back
and the world can't afford your wars

make hay well the sun shines
use investment, to create wealth
you could build car factories 
Japan does not have any metal resources 

but re-imports the cars rubbish 
from the countries they sold then too
look around use your brains
you could also become 

A country that manufacture's
the equipment of the industrialized nations
you could export sand to help overcome 
the erosion on the beaches of the world

you could build the desalination plants 
turning your arad land into lush fertile land
your people could be trained to become employees
creating tax to run your country

yet perhaps we need to think further out of the circle
walkthrough and supermarket and there are so many products
people are busting their brains to come up with new ideas

but the one thing we need most is entertainment
perhaps as a world people should be given 
part of our wage allocated to entertainment
then the unemployed could earn wages 
 
from becoming the entertainers of the future
granted not all of them we still want products 
we still want food, clothing, and machines
I think we should make hay well the sun shines

centuries ago
England tried to make America part of its Empire
The American People sick of paying tax
fought the war of independence 

The world doesn't need any more wars
we need people to work together building 
healthy robust progressing economy's
and happiness.
