Halloween
Halloween
marks the way to the season
Of
remembrance: let the dead be recalled
To mark how
too frequently peace has stalled,
For which
there’s one fundamental reason,
The
persistence of capital in its
Voracious pursuit
of profit, heedless
Of the
inhuman cost, of the needless
Near
countless lives lost. The market sits
In
impersonal judgement as to where lies,
Not a moral,
but the fiscal value,
Wherever
barbarism’s breaking through,
No matter
which blood drenched flag it flies.
Leaving the
haunted, those who always lose,
To appear
almost live on rolling news.
D. A.
Truer words have never been spoken. Capitalism is the curse of the working class
