A New World's Acumen In

A New World's Acumen In

We would have a cure
                for the likes
         of cancer
                just like that
If there were no money
                in it.
Our erstwhile keepers
                make money
Off our sickness,
                             not
Off our good health.
There's no wealth
                  in that
Except our own.
We should pay
Our health practitioners
To keep us healthy
And if we get sick, it's
On their dime.
                         That's
The ticket.

                  -

A New World's acumen in
              and on the way
                        anybody
Who judges anybody
Living in the social milieu
Of 250 years ago
By today's standards
           has either rocks
In his or her head
Or has an agenda.
Which is it
             or what is it
For you??

                 -

A New World's acumen in
        with the likes
Of curcumin.
