The New World Order

Cooked, ready to eat 
April 2027, we meet
The 2026 Finance Bill
A new order, bitter pill

With it you are tracked
Affairs, neatly packed
Taxed here and there
To them, you must be fair

The reverse doesn't hold
Not belonging to the fold
You produce, they don't
Work like you, they won't

Order the world, anew 
To benefit just a few
Cannon fodder, the rest
To the front line, the best
