Deal Or No Deal
星期二 十月 24, 2006 12:52 pm
Watching them
pace with nerves,
butterflies in stomach,
hearing them
exclaim or cheer...
Each week,
different people,
the same value--
materialism praised higher
than spiritual peace.
Deal Or No Deal.
We measure everything
money can buy,
a car, a house, a dream
and even relationships.
Nothing beyond greed--
in reality, this is our deal.
Our cheers easily cover
the scream of a faraway battle,
where the Canadian soldier,
someone's dad, son or daughter
never has a chance to choose.
They simply hope for peace,
while risking their very life;
Ture victory does not include
the money with a deal!
