The Midas men of mountain wealth
Overpowered by their need
Stuffed with stocks of plenty
Cannot satisfy their greed
Calls for more, beyond needs-must
Echo death knell’s clarion bell
As hedonists who squeeze and twist
To fill their fortress cupboard swell
On avenues where shadows shine
Where preferential seats reside
The favoured wait to be adorned
Ignoring talk of genocide
The ivory tower’s light brigade
Maintain their battle ranks
Charging into empty vacuums
Along the barren riverbanks
Bodies where the vanquished lie
Shriek loud in putrid earth
Wait for ocean deep invasions
To restore the scales of worth
