Suburban Shopping

Markham is Canada's
fastest growing community
has grown by 70% since 1990

i went to a mall there
and thousands upon
thousands
of squawking people
much like seagulls
fighting for a piece of meat

except they did not
fight for food but for
prices and
merchandise they do
not need

so many people
so much ignorance
so much pain
so much hunger
so little time

i got what i needed
i got my jacket
and i got my shoes
and for my entertainment
i sat and watched
people acting like seagulls

all clamouring for a piece
of this superficial
economy of imaginary
value
and they probably
went back home
happy and
thought:
well, i
helped
the country's
economy
today
