The American Dream

The American Dream

By Elton Camp

A real bargain in a house the couple spied

To become owners, it was time they tried

Filled out a stack of paperwork

Submitted it to loan officer jerk

The answer soon came back:  loan denied


(Are banks doing what they can to help the economy revive?)
