Due
It's due...
So what am I going to do?
The funds have gotten low
And the flow has been slow
And I just don't know...
But I got to keep the lights on
I got to keep the water running
Nothing in the fridge or the cupboards, c'mon
Lord, please keep me from jumping
This darn phone keeps ringing
But no good news its bringing
It's

Go Bills
There is a sadness in Buffalo,
that will always be felt inside.
The pain of four Superbowl losses,
just tears your heart and pride.
Jim Kelly, and the boys did all that
they could do. Four Superbowl
attempts, they played, but sadly
did so lose!
Oh Buffalo fans don't worry, there's
a New Kid in Town. His name is
Josh Allen, best quarterback around!!
Josh is

Municipal Bills and Elon Musk
Driving down from my eyrie, I write to sound learned while the extent of my education was as a cook in the merchant navy and often thrown ashore in mystic harbors as a fabulist
I thought since there was no proof of god's existence, regarded among the intellectuals as a pastime
Subject I

If cancer were money!
If cancer were money
Yo,
If cancer were money,
Then I'd be rich!
Got stacks of agony and life's a .
Thinkin' it's the cancer, but nah, it's the real cash,
Agony's my currency and it's runnin' like a rash.
It's like snot to a nose,
yeah that 's real runny,
Or a sun that's wide and open,
Man we love it when it's sunny.

Bills Janes and Bobs
In the rust belt loss of work is felt
as industries went overseas..
Bill's, Jane's and Bob's now pining
for jobs to support their families needs.
Good jobs are such a rarity and people here
don't want charity, so send us some good
companies please!

Start Banking
Find some bank and money save
And for the future ways pave:
Good cash you should deposit
Against Hard Time’s sure visit…
When it’s right money withdraw
For spending almost a law;
To a bank go for a loan
When financially alone…
The calmest place to pay bills
Sometimes, like climbing steep hills;
Money finds security
Not released for charity.
Own she does a bullion van

Prayers For Damar Hamlin Buffalo Bills Player
Watching a Buffalo Bills game Last night.
I was shocked to see a player down!
Lying on his back, to our surprise!
We hoped, You get up from the ground.
It was more serious then we knew.
As you were fighting for your life.
As the Nation prayed for you.
Praying you would live, not die.
Two opposing teams stopped

Bills Purple Cow
Farmer Bill was bragging about his purple cow all the time.
If he has a purple cow, a naysayer said, I will pay a dollar and a dime.
Better pay up then, I told him, and the cow’s horns are a weird lime.
He also wears bells on his head, and they whistle, and they chime.

Fantasy Biking
Wearing the wind in my hair
Come ride with me lose your care
We visit the woman who lives in a shoe
With all her kids in various rooms
There is one who is a runt
But his imagination is big fun
His pen creates a magic place
Purple and green transporting space
We can visit a vast past shore
Would you like to

Studying Bills Canvas
In colors this canvas reminds me of our plastic card table cover
The one in reds and blacks that helped us to learn bridge
Mom did not need it; she was an avid bridge player
But Daddy and the rest of us did. This is what I saw on first glance.
I had not thought of this card table

Rum and Twenty Dollar Bills
Rum and twenty dollar bills,
three parts giddy a quarter numb;
Innate desire each one fulfills;
Dazed rabbit diving down molehills
not at all curious about the outcome,
rum and twenty dollar bills;
Relishing everything the taste instills
keyed up and devouring every crumb,
innate desire each one fulfills;
In a flash sensibility sours and spills,
licking the rim

Electric Bills
I am thinking I might just go out drinking
If I see many more red and green lights blinking
The thought of more icicles, shimmering still
Increasing my anxiety about my electric bill.

A Sudden Decision To Hate Max
A sudden decision to hate Max
Who sent his bills like a tax,
Although, I’d wired him a fax
About a song I must first wax.
A reason to twist and turn
And out wardly burn,
Letting prejudice be born
And a relationship torn:
My defense; an easy-going creditor
Can bide with a lazing debtor
After I’d begun to hate Max
My face became supremely Lax
As
