   The Gap
Constantly we’re told what
They’re worth, how they
Guarantee our wealth
While what they do is
Line their own pockets.

Can others sit at their table?
Not until they have had their fill
Of today’s horn of plenty and
Drain the system dry.

This is the new liberty
Free from fetters.
Sold to us as a law of nature
It widens the gap between
Their class and all others.
A racket for the rich
Stretching inequality
To breaking point.
