Help Wanted

by Gary Beck

Beck.Mega Yatch

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another summer
to a troubled land
that disinherits many
while the few revel,
supported by servants
bound to their masters
by economic need
rather than fondness
for indulgent ways,
capricious extravagance
as many go hungry,
their highest aspiration
a service job
on mega-yacht.
