Ingratitude Will send you to hell As Dante said it would But the list of lavish gifts We should be grateful for Is much longer than you think. The tycoons you despise Saved billions of our cash And deserve to be glorified Are you grateful for the discount shops Hypermarkets and the wondrous arcades Progress from small peddlers to shopping malls Bringing You the harvest of every clime? Taking all of you from dirty streets Pioneering merchants who smashed rude booths Window shopping and the escalators Online buying and the neon shows? Don’t count on salvation on the day of judgement Cocytus is waiting for the likes of you II’ll give you a listing of names to say in prayer If you want to Save your person From inferno’s frozen circle From the icy chill of torment From the rueful stream of wailing Josiah Wedgewood, Friedrich Raiffeisen, Harry Selfridge, Mrs Snowball, Jeff Bezos, Potter Palmer, Sam Walton, Victor Gruen Logisticians rarely come to mind When your esteem is looking for a target You don’t thank them and yet they smash Most of existential bottlenecks. They keep charting our flows of life And they order your itineraries They help you run complex operations And specify the critical path. Don’t count on salvation on the day of judgement Cocytus is waiting for the likes of you II’ll give you a listing of names to say in prayer If you want to Save your person From inferno’s frozen circle From the icy chill of torment From the rueful stream of wailing Antoine Jomini, Duke of Wellington, Henry Gantt, Adamiecki, Morgan Walker, James E. Kelly, Allen Hamilton, Robert Cooper Your lamentations Will echo Down the chambers of the underworld For your ingratitude.
