Verisimilitude

They've made it seem
that every dream
is yours for the attaining
while they decide
which genocide
should cull the ones complaining

Buy, buy, buy,
it's all a lie
to make their wallets thicker
as they pollute
the destitute
to try and make them sicker

Those with brains
perceive the chains
that chafe, so unforgiving
but their charade
is so well made
that most believe they're living.
