Dollar By the Collar
symbol of power, arrogance, conceit,
currency that transmits fraud and deceit,
once it had value that was backed by gold
the fiat’s value has dropped many fold,
does not hold value printed on its face,
with growing inflation in losing race,
Do not fool yourself with what’s in your bank,
in savings devalues like leaking tank,
tries to stand taller than Pound or Rupees,
one day it will be brought down to its knees,
future of true money lies in bitcoin,
one day it will kick dollar in the loin,
non centralised and has real value,
a blockchain ledger so long overdue,
forget dollar, fiat that is printed,
invest in bitcoins, clever maths minted!
