I wrote this during a difficult phase of my working life … and sadly, it is all to familiar once again … it seems that corporate machinations are not for me … not saying I am perfect, or the easiest person to manage, and yes I am a work in progress and have been through a lot these past 18 months .. oh well ..moving on then, to what lies ahead …
values, ethics, morals are left in tatters
conveniently sacrificed on the alter of economic greed
moral responsibility is abdicated in fiscal matters
bruised and cast aside for their misdeeds
it's not me, just following orders
it's not my department
I was just the warder
its all in separate compartments
careers built on careerism and obedience
orders coming from persons above
no regard for others, expedience
non ideological, and no thought of the actions thereof
as good as saying the devil made me do it
its gods will
the cry of the uncaring hypocrite
is enough to give the victim a chill
as the the chorus beats its drum
and the new song cuts to the core
the new mantra now oft chanted has become
oh for a few dollars more
