Golden ArchesA Poem by Joe PalmerThe golden arches Tell-tale sign of the modern beast The poisonously addictive starches Lure us back, it’s time to feast.
Ronald McDonald the symbolic Sign of corporate sprawl A silent fiend more than iconic The saturated charm infects us all.
This engulfing monster That appeals to our senses And all the charities they sponsor Designed to deceive, build up pretenses.
An American giant Leaching profits from every continent But Let us be defiant Every boycotted burger is money better spent. © 2014 Joe Palmer |
