ProfitWhen profit guides the needs of man,
the wise withdraw to where they can
look closely at just what they need,
although it's true, you must succeed
in feeding family and provide
the things that keep us all alive.
When things look bleak and fall apart
look deep for what is in...

Profit PieKeep the people sick. Keep the people ill
For profit's being made from each and every pill.
The more pills we take; the more pills we need,
The more we help Big Pharma to satisfy their greed.
Causes of disease must be kept in place
So treating of the symptoms...

The Profit SpeaksWhen the Profit speaks
His sheeple listen
With majority silenced
Calm waters glisten
On the shore sits the dog
Who sees a dog with a bone
At his reflection he snaps
To be left boneless alone
With all the riches acquired
Without clean air or water
All the money in the world
Will be nothing but...

False ProfitI've been misled by my opprobrium again
Stuck in this continuum until the bitter end
Elysian fields beckon me like a moth to flame
Halcyon days gone like 15 minutes of fame
Coal black devil in a pinstripe suit
and the suicide king are in cahoots
To strip me of...

Profit of Lost Soulsprofit of lost souls
In the profit of lost souls
A twenty first century global order
where paper trails all but disappear
and trade moves at light speed through
Complex numbers and feedback loops of uncertainty
in a blink of an eye companies can die...

Real and Lasting Profit -Mark 8: 36God sends forth His gospel
for it to reach down into your soul
offering you eternal hope in love
grabbing it must ever be your goal
As living mankind looking in hope
focusing on that which brings profit
but what will bring true reward?
our minds and thoughts need be knit
The whole...

Doomsday ProfitA most irksome, most self-righteous creature on earth,
this megaphoning doomsday prophet of the street,
harassing and haranguing everyone to repent.
This holier-than-thou dude with an attitude,
is just like some toothless dentist of decency,
guarding the molars of morals of society,
Good folks he threatens with spiritual tooth decay.
Ah, but...

Profit ProphetsI've read several modern day prophets,
some green naturalists
others more ultra-violet spiritual,
a few indigenous,
the occasional zealot.
All diversely agree in predicting
we are not post-millennially
and trans-millennial here together
by accident.
Both you,
and us,
co-incidentally co-present,
hoping and praying for and against each other,
feeling we each were destined
for Earth's future of robust health...

Polished For ProfitDon't say a Farmer
Loves his fowl
Instead -
He loves himself.
Because he comes
Around with corns
To spread along their lawn.
With water cans.
And grains of kinds
To feed his fowls at dawn.
And coloured drugs
And injecting 'cines
To fatten his tiny things.
Cage is for shelter.
Lamp is for weather.
Armed dogs to curb robbers.
I...

Allah and the ProfitISIS-K blew up a girls' school*
al-Qaida claim flogging is cool
No girl is worth
A clump of earth
Wherever the Taliban rule
Jihadists strive to be lanky
To decapitate a Yankee
If Allah were judge
Would He prefer fudge
To another bloodstained hanky?
*whilst school was in session!...

Murdering the CEOWhen the frustrated socialist sees that health care isn't free
He turns into a killer, claims he's saving you and me
He murders a CEO, to make a point, because he could
For the goal of perfection is the enemy of the good
He gets adulation from those who...

The New NormalThe new normal
Welcome to the new normal in Australia
This land of sweeping plain politicians
In the face of hot and cold situations
Getting hotter and colder
Not just here, but globally
And we supply coal to the world
Lying straight faced about meeting our targets
Well, not me, but the profit...

QohelethQoheleth
The now generation passes away; one enters
All the while, the Earth doth abideth forever.
The Sun comes up, the Sun goes down– Arise!
The Winds whirl South to North and then return
While the rivers run into the Sea
Yet the Sea is...

An Economic Food ChainA nature food chain
Linkng the carnivorous and the herbivorous
May be simple
And so an economic food chain within man
The rich and the poor
The poor works hard for the rich with low wage
But when the rich dumps the rubbish
The poor can collect it and...
