Aint my problem

         

Went out and bought a hamburger yesterday, ………….geez it tasted good!

Not hurting anyone. Just part of the system,

doing my thing,

biding my time,

Living my life.

 

Little boy Akash died in Bangladesh yesterday…………..

Not my problem, can’t do anything,

from way over here.

 

Trucks rolled into beef feed lots today…………

Filled with fuel,

loaded with corn,

to feed those cows……………….

Hungry cows eating those grains,

70% of US corn fed to beef cattle these days.

 

Was told it takes 100,000 litres of water,

to make just 1,

kilo of beef.

Sadly they don’t have access to clean water,

in many places,

in Bangladesh.

 

Went out and washed my car yesterday……..

Drove her to the supermarket…..

To buy some cheese,

the Danish blue,

I’ve always liked.

 

Trucks rolled into the supermarket lot today…..

Filled with fuel,

loaded with processed goods,

like my cheese…

840 million starving people today…….

They don’t go away.

 

Lots of stuff made in developing countries these days….

Then taken away,….

at huge expense..

To fuel the psyche,

of a consumerised world.

 

Supporting a system that doesn’t work today……

Corporate agendas that can’t be sustained,

Misplaced values with money spangled eyes.

 

Little girl Mita died in Bangladesh today…..

Is it my problem, can I do something,

from way over here?

Went out and bought a hamburger today,……..geez it tasted sour.
