TRUMP GETTING MORE RICH
MAKING IRS HIS
THE OLD BAIT AND SWITCH
Money for nothing
your genocide is free
we send the cash
you do the crimes
Americans kept dumb
no healthcare
no education
no food for the poor
cogs in the wheels of despair
so they never see
the slaughter against humanity
the Zionists running free
Saw Farmer Fred sitting beneath his oak tree
He was all smiles and had a face filled with glee
Now this is what he reports to me
Last week I thought myself to be in dire straits
Then Uncle Sam came through with a check
Now my chicken coop is once again fully stocked
My friend it’s like money for nothing and chicks for free
This morning I received a letter
I’m rich beyond my wildest dreams
They assure me it isn’t a con trick
Or one of those ‘get rich quick’ schemes
A relation I have never ever heard of
Well, he’s left me millions in his will
If I can forward my bank account details
I’ll get the money from my late uncle Phil
I dash round to tell my neighbour
With my riches we can go on a cruise
But she’s clutching an identical letter
And was on her way round to tell me HER news
I think I’ll bypass this incredible offer
It seems we’ve both been told the same thing
These scammers have not duped this lady
I’ll give the fraud department a ring!
But it was not real Contest

my mental health
won’t bring me wealth
except on game shows
where I’m counting toes
Dire Straits sang Money for Nothing
if that’s true I would even sing
It's A Recession going on out here
Cars left unsold houses left empty and bare
No jobs, no food,no money for nothing
Everyday your out there hustling
It's A recession going on for everybody breathing
Baby's crying no milk no food for the feeding
No money bank balance is negative zero
Please send me my super hero
It's a Recession as we speak right now
Help your fellow neighbor some way some how
God say ask and you shall receive as long as you believe in me
Don't worry brighter days are soon coming
Learn not to fret but start singing and humming
Pray for everyone you know and love
And watch your blessings come pouring from above
IT's A Recession!!!
Learn to say it and watch you get some free s**t!
Learn to say "is that with the discount"?
Learn to smile!
I alone
long ago friends have already went home
Just a quiet poet,you see
typing away as youth lets me be
Selfish desire put out the burning fire
Once I was a boy but now who easily tires
I at night
choosing the words that might
earn me a living
who feverishly need
just a roof over my hair
without expensive tastes in greed
You could go on
enjoying what you have
the same old MONEY FOR NOTHING song
Savoring the luxury of choice
as for myself
I have not a choice
However
Poetry is what I am solely about
Using it for voice
Instead of trying to rock or shout
Being quiet and so
in my unique way
As the poem is read from your eyes
Think about what it has to say
The next time a poet
brings down a poem from his(or her)skies
