Welfare diversion
The hand that was drawn up
Forging a way for equality
Lifting up the downtrodden
To gaze on a new horizon
One full of possibilities
Only equality can deliver as progress
Slowly now this hand withdraws from need
Lending itself to a wealth of misdirection
Pushing down the desire to rise
Against a machine that counts
Human suffering as profitable
Herding contemporary slaves to order
This violence goes by deprived of need,
insisting in its legitimacy
While denying legitimate needs existence
Scorning welfare with such triumph
The hand of need falls down in shame
So the welfare cuts become entrenched
An easy diversion to subsidies
Into an ever narrowing wealth pocket
That will hold the helping hand captive
Crumbling democracy in its tight grip
Fading is the social design to support
The protection of a safety net
And the demise will not spare
The separation of the enterprise
