The Error Of Commerce

In every market stall There are bucket loads of people Standing around with thoughts full of misery The error of commerce printed in their faces There is not a lot of money in their pockets Only a few coins to buy a few onions or bananas The rest of the money is stashed in a few people's wallets Useless in its beauty, it cannot even feed a dying malnourished child It is kept safe to decorate the fancy project of life Where people fill their bellies with oysters, mushrooms and many other exotic delicacies There is no room for hunger pangs or any of the thorns of life that torments the poor and vulnerable The error of commerce is not taught in universities It stays hidden in the eyes of the masses It is not even mentioned in churches or mosques or temples It is the cost of living that stops humanity from achieving the unimaginable It keeps humanity in a state of perpetual longing It hinders the progression of humanity to a higher state of consciousness It stops the flow of unconditional Love Barricading the heart of Man with evil schemes, exploitation, corruption and manipulation Only a few people are at liberty to truly enjoy life The rest are kept in chains, toiling for a living under the scotching sun and tight timelines The error of commerce is not only a human tragedy, it's a cemetery of the human conscience and consciousness ©Kenneth Maswabi
