Business As Usual

“Business as usual” prophesied 
by sombre faces with panic stricken eyes

Whispers of crooked plans 
cultivated behind closed doors 

Loyalty called upon from the poor few
that know the muffled truths
while honey coated promises blinds the rest

The innocent to be sacrificed
to spare the tragedy from the rich

Who is safely nestled on their lifeboats
while watching the ship sink
