Capital Failure

You look tired old friend

worked hard for so many years

I hope it was worth the time you spent

But no

you just have been another gear

in the vast great machine of capitalism

Now that you're old and worn out

death could strike any moment

and finally you realize

your whole life

was all for nothing

You have been hunting illusions and false promises

wealth, status, shiny products

So sad that you take time to reflect about your life

when it's coming to an end

You had your chance

You used it badly
