Crass materialism.
A bus has its owner
He hires a poor driver.
A public service vehicle
It’s supposed to be.
At the end of the day
It brings remittance.
In the form of cash
From collected bus fare.
To ensure efficiency
Owner sets a target earning for driver.
One day the bus is involved
In so tragic an accident.
The owner is informed
Via a phone call.
The first question that
The owner actually asks.
Is whether his dear bus
Yes, his bus is still in shape.
He is not concern about
Neither driver nor passengers.
