The key to economy

THE KEY TO ECONOMY
Mode to produce
Built onto the dust 
Of previous ones 
The contemporary added -
Scarcity
Consumerism and
Competition 
Where no one serves - everybody leads

Shaken by ongoing wars
Crime
Absolute poverty and 
Curbed human rights 
Brings to mind 
The old axiom:
Know Thyself
Not the form -  beyond

The Incomprehensible reflected 
It s own image onto matter
From that –
How long can it taken
To pull one’s own string,
How long can it taken
To fathom  
True creation 

The creative act 
Can only spring 
From the higher reality 
Of imagination 
Time pierced by thought -
Made                                                                                                                                                      
Leonardo, Shakespeare and Liszt 
God-like.
