Virus Of Consumerism

Oh this virus, consumerism, King there is, nor rule, only kingdom. And there's all-grabbing greed, People buy beyond need, With all intellect, there's no wisdom. ___________________________________________ Diwali festivals are over and markets are in the grip of Christmas fever. Malls mull over two big shopping days in rich countries: Black Friday of so-called killing discounts and Cyber Monday ofsales mania. Pope Francis has condemned ‘the virus of consumerism' because it forgets ‘the brother who knocks at your door'. ___________________________________________________ Reflections |05.12.2019| Topic: greed, money, malls
