: We're Idling It Away by LisaMay


• 

We’ve now had practice

at filling up empty days

in unemployment.

“It’s only money”,

but having it is priceless.

Ask a poor person. 

Minds full of worry,

hands in our empty pockets

as we come apart.

Will it soon make sense?

Hoping it will all work out

before we are spent.

Author Notes
Author's Note:
The financial cost is unimaginable. Globally, so many people are living with the prospect of poverty through unemployment; so many businesses are going to the wall or being 'mothballed' - waiting for better times. Monetary assistance will be necessary and so much government money is being spent to alleviate these effects. Inevitably, Capitalism and 'The Market' will need a re-think for the future.
