Isn’t life a play to win game
thawing in a cold heartless sea
saturated by chemically enhanced pollution
our shores of safety drift
craving the fill of our contented belly
vainly stuck upon our righteous salvation
we’ve gorged upon limited resources
menus of gluttony permeate
visiting China mart on the outskirts of town
distending our willingly ignorant
Price is Right vacation spin
accountable we’ll be held
hidden below the vodka chilled cruises
unspoken icebergs will emerge
