Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Real Change

The poor man and the politician both live off the dole.
                         It's just that
       The mole gets a larger slice of that whole.

                     Want real change?
                     Structural change?
                       Lasting change?

     Let us, the TAXPAYERS, change up those doles;
           That'll put a hole in the mole's soles!
         After all, it's OUR MONEY, our bankroll--
       Shouldn't we ought to grab the CONTROLS?

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 17, 2018 at 4:38 PM Sounds reasonable to me. :) Gershon Wolf April 17, 2018 at 10:03 PM Alright! You and I can be first in line for the mole's former dole! (As good as winning the lottery). :)

Michelle Faulkner April 17, 2018 at 8:17 AM This is so fitting for Tax Day - and very true! Gershon Wolf April 17, 2018 at 10:02 PM Hadn't thought of that angle, Michelle. Thanks for mentioning it. (I guess it's time to start on my taxes this evening...LOL! Just kidding). :) gw
