Poverty Multiplied By Inequality Equals......

In these democratically turbulent times
where multi-coloured political party kettles
say that the opposition have gone to pot,
and the opposition need to clean their act up
if they even half want to remain the opposition 
what Governing parties like to affirm 
is that the public needs more
of the old divisions between rich and poor,
the public are better off than they can know 
with a politics where wealth,
whatever the skin colour of it's holder,
entitles the wealthy to the privacy
where the public can't know how racist
and worse, obnoxious towards the poor, the newly rich are.
And the poor will know even less
of the private opinions of the wealthy
after the latter have massaged the poor's vote,
via divisive media, and propaganda that reinforces
the distance between controller and controlled.
