A Global Village

Capitalists built a web of business connections between nations In their search for lucrative business deals Constructing a global theatre of business monopolies A global business market was sculpted And a global village was erected In the minds of the Capitalists It was business as usual Not foreseeing the risks involved They escalated their push for all forms of connectedness From telecommunications to air travel The global village community was thriving At least on the first world side The poor third world countries suffered from exploitations All forms of injustices and negligence were poured on unsuspecting communities Poverty and diseases were left unchecked And a monster of immense proportion was created - inequality The distribution of resources was one sided And the peasants of the third world were left to forage the forests Eating all sorts of forbidden foods They opened the Pandora's Box The capitalists forgot one critical area of business Humanity Human beings are the key drivers of business And any form of negligence or injustice is registered in the book of Karma You reap what you sow Now comes Covid-19 aka Coronavirus outbreak Utilizing the same pathways of business transactions The Coronavirus epidemic found the Achilles tendon of the current World Order And a new form of reality was unveiled Inequality is bad for each and every member of the global village As long as human interactions are good for business The detrimental effects of poverty and diseases will forever be our curse Now it's time for the Capitalists to re-strategize To unveil Marshall plans for the global village Especially the developing countries It's time to create sustainable employment in poor countries It's time to develop sustainable infrastructure in Third World countries It's time to eradicate poverty It's time to erase inequality from the streets of life Otherwise the next pandemic will not spare the board rooms Or the shiny streets of the First World countries Beware the Zombie apocalypse is next You reap what you sow It's a mantra for today, tomorrow and forever ©
