What does my ideal future look like?
The quiet whir of servos
and stepper motors
as my robotic domestic
household assistant washes dishes
and sweeps floors.
The smell of clean
city air fills my lings
as zero-emission cars
sidle by on well-kept streets.
Full buses commute
multitudes of multi-ethnic
living-wage workers
to Union jobs
with great benefits,
accessible facilities
and iron clad
anti-discrimination legislation.
Private schools are bulldozed
or turned into homeless shelters
and community centres.
Golf courses are turned
into public parks,
nature reserves and camp grounds.
The "male/female" checkboxes
on birth certificates are
replaced with love hearts
and infinity symbols.
The crushing exploitation
of the working class
by white collar loan sharks
with ultra-high interest loans
is punishable by
the immutable irony
of being sentenced
to hard labour.
Voting is mandatory.
Borders are opened.
Prisons become rehab centres
and the era of
"For-Profit Humanity"
finally dies.
