[bodytext] => The IMF, the World Bank and U.S. Business A partnership of greed Designed to open Third World markets To resources rich countries need Slick bureaucrats in designer suits Preside over this policy That lose local people their jobs With litanies of lunacy Cut your social programs Cut schools, hospitals and care Transfer resources to companies Lose all sight of what is fair It is so easy for the bureaucrats Safe in their plate-glass towers In luxury and comfort they sit While the U.S. flexes its powers The IMF is the tool of the U.S. To make poor countries kneel With blackmail and other threats To keep them beneath the heel Open your markets to foreign investors At super knock down rates Reduce your support for the poor Leave them to their fates This is the reality of our modern world And the truth of globalisation Take from those who have the least And give to our powerful nation The U.S. is a beast with an endless appetite For consuming the world’s resources It lies that it cares for the dieing poor But contributes to its sources Don’t be fooled by the PR lies Globalisation is for the rich On the road to endless markets The poor will end in the ditch [comments] => 2 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 41 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
