it's a common sight today. corporados laying mitts on
blood-soaked dollar bills, heedless to the shrieks
of hacked-up rabbits, badgers, squirrels … creatures
rendered pools of gristle by godzilla chainsaws.
pink-cheeked from behind his desk, a pointless point
across the room, this banker in his navy blue, official coat and tie …
smiles at you, with a put-on smile he's gesticulating.
taking off his glasses now he's positively boasting …
"this work that we do my friends, environmental management.
our machines are paving over useless and foul-smelling swamps.
we're building a collection of important high-rise parking lots.
our financial wisdom's plain, profits pave the way of course."
bodies cut to ribbons on the site of every shopping mall!
this is the effect of businesslike resolve! ceo's devoid of
any feeling or compassion, real estate speculator windbags …
draining marsh and wetland. messing with the balance of
sensitive ecologies, sweaty palms on piggy banks,
predatory financiers poised and ready for success …
screwing mother nature!
