Off the Food

Off the Food

Relatively, 
It's not funny; 
Candy bunny, 
Eat safely. 

Your business, 
Our concern; 
You're careless, 
We're reasoned. 

If this is your prank, 
And just want rank; 
Not even being frank, 
Sorry if you're Frank. 

How much can you carry? 
All the cash money; 
You also have to eat, 
Unless you're anti-vege and meat. 

You Mr. or Mrs.,
What are your visions? 
Who are your versus? 
Why create problems? 

Beautiful packing, 
Looking attractive; 
Selling expensive, 
People suffering. 

Government steps in, 
As if you can be replaced; 
Prices nothing like shark fin, 
Society's eyes happily gazed. 

1Malaysia cream cracker, 
Goodbye Jacker and Double Decker; 
Thought it would be better, 
Expired date as clear as water. 

Too bad we know sense, 
Use it for bless; 
We do not feel dense, 
You ought to confess. 

China goods, 
Intruders you recruit;
Ingredients of untruths, 
Hunger to death pursuit. 

Both parties are leveled, 
Left us troubled; 
Should we off the food, 
Wealth won't enter your hood. 

Think wisely and honest, 
We are no fool; 
If you want to lie to us, 
Go learn back your moral in school. 

We hope for no matter, 
We write no complaint letter; 
Happy food is fatter, 
Easier than being a regretter. 

No one wants to suffer, 
We just want laughter; 
Tell us what you put into wafer, 
And we shall be loyal eater. 

Consumerism, 
Gold digger; 
Empire bigger, 
Capitalism. 

Enough of chemicals, 
Uplifting artificials; 
Gigantic commercials, 
You deserve only bicycles. 

Take off your shoes, 
Put on our shoes; 
We won't wear your shoes, 
We walk in our shoes. 

Without us, 
You won't be here; 
Typing fungus, 
Some don't give cheer. 

All said and done, 
Of butter and bun; 
This isn't for fun, 
These aren't mere words ton. 

Dear you food producers, 
If you mind your manners; 
We double your price planners, 
Just don't give us your cancers. 


P/S: So coincidentally today I saw this picture. It suits so much to my poetry. Thank you :")
