Money can't buy our Love



a spontaneous response

Impotent  in the face of death, impotent, perhaps, in the face of life
we substitute one for another,money can buy power, but not human rights,
medicine but not health, decorations but no happiness
impossible to love, can often  make us feel inhuman,
a paradox then, that leaves many bankrupt and broken
has become an idol of the rich, destroys the joys of the poor,
if it lasts , it lasts because of us, it shines  in dour emanation
suffocating souls, creating wars, oozing with supperation,
paper burns, gold melts at 1063 celsius, copper melts at 1583
Zinc at 419, silver at 961, you see it's all a matter of degree,  
in our pockets slides like a dark turning point of no return
buys us illusion,  figments of crazy imagination,
turns us into machines, with its numbness and sham
impotent in the face of death, impotent, perhaps, in the face of life,
we need leaders not in love with money. but in love with justice
not in love with publicity, but in lovee with humanity,
Money can't buy our love.
