Happy New Year 12-31-14

Happy New Year! Drink some beer! Restore the cheer, And have not fear. Credit card bills Are piling up And to think You bought a pup! The Christmas toys That brought them joys Will be broken by Next month. The balance due Is still new On credit statements Addressed to you. Work extra hours To pay power, Water, and rent But that won't Even put a dent. Now you will have To sacrifice Family time To make a dime. To pay off debt You don't have yet. But if you get Sick, demands won't be met. AFLAC's only for The rich, not poor So take my advice Don't roll the dice. Don't take a chance On one time romance It only brings Heartbreak, not rings.
