Poetic Verses
An Illusion
In earlier times people as tourists, demostrate such economic power and might
The people of the host countries seeing this, thought it to be just right
Seeing them so fashionable, walking around with expensive cameras
Many thought that you would get rich, by just going into those areas.
Time progressed and furthermore the life style and culture
Is readily promulgated via sattelite Tv, through all facet of the mass media
This now seemed to be branded and readily epitomized
So to the people of the smaller countries, being there was the ultimate prize
When presented with the opportunity, many flocked there and got disillusioned
There were faced with reality, and not with that perceived situation
Then they realised that what they say was just illusionary
And the system is there but one have to be compete fiercely.
Yes they still see that there was always lots of showy affluence
Strolling hand in hand with all the forms of extravagance
And the populace comtinue to show the bright beam
As they say they are depicting all the traits of the "national dream."
Even though the indicators are there, but still they did not sway
Determined to continue going on the economic destruction way.
Heading at a rapid rate, getting closer to that financial precipice
Clear it is evident. that here there is an economical death wish.
So people admire, be careful, and not get taken in by what you see
Think carfully do not act hastily in a manner so irresponsibly
Sometimes what you see was just to target a set of individuals
Who has skill as talents that have the potential to be marketable.
