Analysis of That’s a bit Rich! Eee!
Chocolat Monet 1976 (Leamore)
Sunak Erred, left us cold saying “ Do not put (imagined)future generations in debt”
So now we suffer for a fantasy future?
We face cruelty in the present to protect quantum wealth….
Broken pelvis at 85 years old and left for dead
Her kitchen floor be her hospital bed
31 hours an ambulance she’s awaiting
Whilst Millionaire Sunak’s in the Commons debating…
£14 billion for the NHS in the next two years
A bitter pill to swallow today as 500 humans die needlessly, nonsensically, weekly in oblique misery!
The rich man’s loin well girded
The poor man’s cloth cut to the bone
Nonchalant middle classes face obliteration
We are herded but somehow alone,
Proliferating into a wickedly orchestrated recession
To line the pockets of those who understand and manipulate Quantum Wealth
Quantum Wealth or National Health?
A millionaire has made their choice to abandon morals…
They can donate money or volunteer in a soup kitchen- Their bank balance resigns them to Hell and the constant companion called ‘The fear of losing it all’
Having never seen the world as lost as right now
We all saw it coming but we saw nothing
Protecting feelings instead of lives
Self loathing adolescents butcher themselves and their peers in a benign attempt to not be like the human filth that has ruled the world for thousands of years!
Good luck with that…

About this poem
This poem is a powerful commentary on the current state of society, particularly in terms of economic inequality and the lack of support for those in need. The use of imagery, such as the broken pelvis and the elderly being left for dead, is powerful and evocative. The poem highlights the moral dilemma of prioritizing "quantum wealth" over the well-being of citizens, and the devastating effects of this choice. The last stanza brings the focus on the mental and emotional impact on society, specially on the youth. The poem is well-written and effectively conveys a strong message. more »
