Faux Dough

Blowing up things, unfortunately,
Birth’s the printing of endless money.
By Gov’ments and world money makers,
That overwhelm global undertakers.

Yet we cry out that war is unsound,
That it spreads grief and guts all around.
Yet money printed that’s spent on death,
Shamefully gives our markets bad breath.

Which helps to inflate our portfolios,
And house prices rise when their money flows.
Which is a bummer when we are buying,
But when selling our spirits are flying.

That’s the nature of evil Ponzi schemes;
They’re a huge faux dough making machine.
But when interest rates start going higher,
The globalist fear’s become direr.

Yet they’ve pre-planned for any crisis;
Funding Hamas, Hezbollah, and Isis.
So all sides may have weapons for gore,
Creating more dollars; yes, much more!

But faux dough made on printing devices,
Is the main reason for all high prices.
So they help blow up half of creation,
To help lessen that sticky inflation.

But most aren’t aware of the real players,
Who divide and distract behind layers,
With ‘news’ and psyops that raise our ire,
Fooling us to put out the small fires

Oh fie, a poem about money and war,
What is the point of writing this for?
It’s for those with an enquiring soul,
Who care to see that our sons remain whole.

I missed this poem. It looks like it's all coming true. Who will be the next president, Congress and Senate? I think you'll have more subjects to write about.

Hey Hilda, thanks for commenting! I think if a candidate wants to stop in and chat about reality, then I'd vote for them.

Writing about money makes many an eye glaze over these days. Understanding of finance and economics is at all-time low, I'm sure! Bravo for having the guts to pull it off, David ~ Gershon

Thanks Gershon. Maybe another Wizard of Oz story needs to be put out there with subtitles for financial translations.

A FAV for this Shakespearian poem, David. Well written and well done, from one that cares about that last line son. There's much to be gleamed between these lines, mush as there were in William's time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts through your fine poetry, my friend. Have a great day! Bill
