The shit we get
Is the shit we accept,
Chlorinated chicken
What the fuck next,
GMO products already full the shelves
They don’t care one bit,
If it’s detrimental to our health
They lower food standards,
This is to ramp up their profits
And to all prospective trading partners easy access,
To feed us the shit that they produce
And they force us to eat it,
As our wages and living standards are reduced
Polluted fruit and veg grown in polluted soil,
Contaminated by their pesticides
Question them on it and they lie,
Look a little deeper and pry
And ask more questions why?
Why have you lowered food standards?
Why are you importing substandard food?
They can’t answer this
And if they do they take the piss,
Thinking we are as ignorant as them
It’s time for these wrongs and lies to end.
This is something I would show up to protest! We are constantly being sold out by people with no soul.

i totally get your anger. Individually, the best solution is to grow organic if you have the space to do a kitchen garden. coz Govt. doesn’t care for food security anyway.
P.S- i interpreted your poem in this way, if it has another meaning, would you please enunciate? π
