The Big Lie

the big lie

I surprise me the wrong choices we make to stake
our living in the tourist industry which has no future
and consist of bringing  some people from a to b,
instead of farming and smaller industry
I rather make holes in a horseshoe than being
an airline pilot, this useless occupation I can
think of. 
We have sent our viable industry to China and
a created hole for ourselves so the bosses can make
a few pounds more it is tragic our shortcomings, we
have been side blinded by false promises and we walk
to the precipice for a day in the sun.
we have been hoodwinked into thinking a holiday is a human
right it is not, but work is, then a holiday nearby.
