Money Is Both Something and Nothing

Money is both Something and Nothing: Something when it’s A Rescuer And it’s goddamned far away Nothing when its can’t do A Thing While in one’s hands not fewer But it’s clear you’ll be blown away! Money is both Something and Nothing: Something when filled is your sewer And it alone offering a ray, Nothing when its sound is Poor Ring, No longer fetching The Newer And you may it burn on ash tray. In the morn, Money boy’s Big Thing And before darkness Plain Nothing; Away could fly with Parting Wings And leave you with Angry Hand Swings.
