A Poem - Fiat gamblers

Gambling with theirs lives
Everything on the line
All dependent on a sacred cow
Not backed by mathematics
Just a bunch of contemptuous weak humans
They plug into their fiat systems
Taxes, pensions, mortgages, and other fiat words
A constantly devaluing fiat currency
Playing a game of theatre
Pretending it is the Brexit
Or the foreigner
When it is just a bad gamble
CVs and biographies
Application forms
Boxes to be ticked
Fiat system bureaucracies
Compress a human into cut out cardboard
Get paid
In fiat currency
Earning fiat
Increasing debt into the fiat system
Increasing homelessness and evictions
Accelerating climate change
A positive feedback cycle
On a bad gamble
Of the fiat lives
Half lives
Non lives
Of addicts playing humans
As long as I'm getting mine
Fiat gamblers
