Capitalism

An artist’s rendering of capitalism if it were a person.

Capitalism

Is often compared

To a cult.

But that isn’t the case.

Cults have followers.

Who willingly follows capitalism?

Capitalism kills everything

And turns good things

Into hellish nightmare fodder.

It turns innocence

Into malice

Hobbies

Into grinds

And good men

Become demons

All through the magic

Of capitalism.

Cults don’t do that—

None we know about, anyway.

Cults lack the power

Wish they had the power.

Capitalism

Isn’t a cult—

It’s a serial killer

Hell avenge us, for heaven abandoned us!!

And we’re all trapped in its basement.
