Being Broke

An out-of-money experience Is almost like existing without an essence This period is one so awful No money, no elation, just doleful The money in your bank is broke The money in your hand is nil Who to call that is not broke? Who would give without being left nil? One too many is the responsibility One too many is the workload Little to nothing is the payload Little to nothing is the mobility A sluggard off another's dough thrives all good A bilker thru' bilkering gets all rich good He, a worker, gets less luck and cash at a distant range Why should this be? he finds so strange Should the reward for a scammer be being rich? The scammer ought not remain being rich Should the reward for a worker be being broke? The worker ought not remain being broke
