Poem
Woke up jumped off the couch and put on a mask Used in order to survive another average day Sat on the stairs lit up and smoked enough to blow a mind and descend into a heady hazy trance Oh boy John said to Paul I just watching the news today Witnessed both a declaration and a timely reminder to the everyman To in no uncertain terms know thy station know thy place Within the unwritten small print of the law Opening Gambit Pincer movement King Trump's pawn Check mate The rich will never see the inside of a court Otherwise what is the point of being powerful and wealthy If it can not pervert the rule of law The judge and jury have long already been picked and bought Why call him Andy Why not Scott At very least that rhymes with free And at a mere cost of 12 Million pieces of slippery mercury worthless currency Adorned with his sad tragic mother's face and royal family crest all across Matter's not of that I am sure to him he obviously has a lot and won't go or be left without It's no more than tangible proof of yet another breach of public trust I only rather wish it was not just another mistaken reported case of fake news than simply just another example of A day in the life Of the opposing lives of what both the rich and everyman have to deal with And the glaringly senseless point of counting potholes whatsoever however small or insignificant they appear in the 1st place If there is absolutely never any desire or intention of ever actually trying to fix or repairing them at all Or is that in actual fact indeed the case and point being mistakenly overlooked Far more joy and fun is to be garnished from rubbing people's noses in and seeing the look upon disheartened faces When the final edict and not guilty verdict is read out in astonishment
