with wealth-conditioning set
to High and lifestyle set to
Pamper , we are gladly blinded
to poverty and razor wire;
spellbound by the Harlot's
charms and chintz and gaudy
we smile into her soft embrace;
unaware she makes us willing
carriers of her contagion
which disdains compassion
except
to people like ourselves
