Stupidity In The Marketplace Poem by Samuel A. Eyitayo

Stupidity in the Marketplace
Lay there for all to see
Longing for all to think it was lost
Left for someone else to eat
Oh no.
They're still here with me
Trying to peddle their cheese.
The knives arrive and they turn to stone
As best they can, the tell a story.
Everyone is lost in consumption
In a desert of greed
Tearly it drained from our society
Making all the people succumb to the mass consumption
The birds all taunt me with their chirp
Why not ask the rabbits
Or the fruit standing next to me?
Maybe it is what they are hiding? '
'I'm sorry, I don't know' reply the earthworms close to my feet, inviting chaos upon my purchase
Beware!
Animal-human frenzy
Markets overflow with violence
Crowding, color the walls
Buy, buy, buy
Where is the help?
