Toxic Austerity

Run for your life as if it were at the seems
Pick up the pace as work beckons at its time of greed

Down flows the toxic chaos
     flowing down like a river
              Contaminating the masses

Slaves and Zombies alike angry and sad
While the "normal" have much to their stash

Crack the whip!     No chit chatting!
      Work harder work harder!     You have one hour!

Down into the skin of the people the hatred seeps
       Sapped of the dignity once kept in a tightly assured grup
           Down, down it goes yet nobody weeps

                   You failed!

Robotic expectations
Emotionally-made lacerations
Relief? No expected indication
While the "normal" give their orders vindication

Welcome to hell for your vacation destination!
