Free Cee a Ponzi Theme

A PONZI THEME This is a tale ten thousand times told A story about a young man who eventually grew old If there are traps in life he avoided every hitch This is a parable about a poor man who grew rich This is a tale only certain people care to declare Some folks do and others don’t dare Stepping on stones like bones and treating people like pets With the immoral means in which a driven man pays his debts He made foes out of friends and friends out of foes For unprincipled people like him anything goes He had women bared naked and men kneeling at his feet He was a heathen most moral men never get to meet One of his multi-million dollar apartments overlooked the center of Central Park He earned all those many millions by hiding in the dark Each morning he arose to more lies and deception And should have abandoned his abuses upon their inception Yet smiles can’t seclude the truth one knows inside And all the honesty his amoral ambition defied So this has been a narrative thousands of year old It recounts a man’s secret about his soul to whom Satan he sold © 2009…..free cee!
