Snap Judgements
Skin can
confer innocence or guilt,
Scrutinized
by the ever watchful eye
Of the
camera, and cameras do not lie,
Even if
discrimination is in-built.
Innocence can’t
be presumed any longer,
Human nature,
it seems, is thought so flawed
It’s far
better that people are outlawed
Than rely on
honesty being stronger.
After all,
the profit motive requires
The committing
of a legalised crime,
In the
stealing of unpaid for labour time,
The
difference between sellers and buyers.
However depressed,
at least smile a bit,
Snap
judgements need you to be photo fit.
