Easy Money

Buy now, pay later.

You’ve got credit!
We’ve got debt.

Let’s swap.

It’s how we derive
With asset backed securities

For your house equities

To burrow into your burdens
Our financial inequities

Those company bonuses

As we put you into minuses!
Buy now pay later, so they tell us

Like what comes out of anuses.

How clever, Misheel! And the last line is a hoot. Really a funny reflection on people's tendencies to spend more than they earn. Great poem! Best wishes, carolyn
