Pulchritudinous virtual crime pulled off without a cocked hitch

Pulchritudinous virtual crime pulled off without a cocked hitch

delivered me back in the dark shadows
and the underbelly of the web,
where impossible mission 
to differentiate the outer limits 
cast by edge of night 
essentially rendering a twilight zone
where obscured criminal activity 
clear as day in retrospect,
versus earlier this month
when yours truly gung ho 
obediently got a crash course 
in cryptocurrency and electronic bondage
blindsided to the Potemkin Village,
who never heeded the red flags
now forced me to revisit 
nightmare scenario of pennilessness,
whereby an absentee vote 
of no confidence in self awareness
guaranteed enthrallment back 
to burglarious, nefarious, usurious loan sharks 
ever since the latter part of June 2023,
when pseudonymous Harvey Specter 
indelibly etched monetary fiasco 
now marking 
the second anniversary of debacle
present racket instigated 
courtesy Donald Koons,
who steered gullible guy 
into a worse fate than death.

Utter brainless nincompoop
in this poem heretofore addressing
I wanna be forever free
and clear from mortal anguish,
and need more than a blessing -
I need a miracle worker 
or billionaire philanthropist after confessing
behavior of naïveté causing depressing
wretched state of mind
self incriminating admission expressing
emptying out checking 
and savings accounts
not by my choosing 
but the deviltry of Robin hood 
and his merry band of outlaws 
which include Little John, 
Friar Tuck, Will Scarlet, 
and Much the Miller's Son.

The importance of money
or lack thereof smarts,
especially when series
of unfortunate events
even Lemony Snicket,
would be flabbergasted
at such blatant and flagrant stupidity
exhibited courtesy yours truly.

Herr dummkopf did not function
with one iota of his brain
case in point entire
financial cushion he did drain
late June two thousand and twenty three,
where anonymous, barbarous, egregious,
ferocious, iniquitous jerks
re: cyber crooks enriched their coffers
in previous poems I did explain,
how yours truly got sucker punched
to surrender substantial capital
subsequently severe depression
washed over me like floodplain
after a major hurricane,
thus another shout out,
though I feel quite insane
to drum up buffer (in) zone
excedrin also sought
to bring temporary relief
far fetched likelihood in dough main
despite moon shot
to witness philanthropic boost,
I keep praying Meg Found
will pull thru and ordain
analogous to pinwheeling plane
(disaster from fraudster frazzled father)
one ordinarily perspicacious primate
who two years later still experiences 
financially hardship that doth strain
and punctuated psyche 
with moon efficient crater 
whose sense of orientation 
analogous to a spinning weathervane.
