here comes black friday

Black Friday is here.
Shop, shop and shop again,
is all THEY wish we did.

Like the rhythm of a heart,
the shopping drums beat,
come! shop fain!
but it is another's gain.

The beat, these shopping days make,
is not delighting one's heart,
but light poor peoples' ache.
It isn't meant to dance the likes
of you or me,
but others -
those select few,
who will remain
after this spree of shops -
so rich, rich, rich
while we scratch
the shopping itch.

So, why don't all of us ?
yes -
you and me -
stand tall, stand smart,
and unite behind this coming BND ?
