Guru and the Worker

Guru the Economist:


“Three thirty five thousand of you will loose your jobs this year”
Who will it be.
Who will it not be.
The math is done; the market has spoken.

The supplicant worker’s plea:


Here, my offering;
hear My plea;
Kindly lord, you;
Fearsome lord;
Lord of the market;
Grant I be not found;
Not in the wrong;
Not on the wrong side
Side of your shriveled hand of rage.

- F. J. Kolapo
