ECONOMICS MEAN LITTLE

Economics mean little
to those who have nothing

Grammar is nothing
to those who can't speak

Speech is a bonus
for those with the look

My look was neglected
Thank God for this book

Does it bother anyone else that we are ruled by our own inventions? Market value? Profti margins? 'What are you reading, my lord?' 'Words. WORDS!' (Hamlet).
When we say we're writers, they say we make things up, that we're out of touch with reality. Wt...?
Home sweet home: this ironical world. Fiction, illusion and lies... known better as 'reality.'
Nice verse:)

Oh it certainly bothers me, but it worries me as well. The funny thing is, I'm on another site and I've titled my folder "Words, words, words," though in that case it's more to flaunt my interest in Shakespeare than anything lol. Yeah I'm not sure what reality is anymore, especially in light of my illnesses, and this is probably the closest I've come to articulating that, and eight lines was all I could muster. In a nutshell, thanks for the comments and I'm glad you relate to it :)

Awesome poem:) it is very true and thought provoking.
(just a question, though economics is a plural noun, doesn't it take a singular verb i.e, economics /means/ little instead of economics mean little? That's like physics or gymnastics. I didn't mean to offend you, sorry if I did:) )

[kublakhan27]

Haha it's alright...I took some economics courses in school and I'm pretty sure the verb is singular but that was a while ago now so I could be wrong...I'll have to check on it haha I'm glad you like the poem though :)
