Economic Meltdown
All income is lower than any bill
poverty swells, about to exhibit
to all options the mind would have to drill
fat growing needs already prohibit
the spouse and the children all will survive
whips from the family from unknown foe
yet stay intact and thankfully alive
but reduced in value to share a dough
a onetime agent of life so so kind
wealth and health in this mansion they wed
with needs and wants facing a quick grind
and a great lifestyle in a gown so red
a mass travel from all to create this mourn
what waits of these to pat the back is none.
