The bully-the-pussies fat ass
Doesn't care for our middle class
"America First"
Means the wealthy are nursed
By the troll whose tower is brass...

T-rump is not such a bad guy!
Our middle class needs he'll supply
Quite humble in charge
With sweet bounty so large
He's charming just like Captain Bligh...

Working class people 
Do not trust socialist intellectuals
Don´t get lured by them 
They are upper middle class people 
Who want to run your revolution....

It's the middle class t-rump attacks
This ass dumps our social contracts
For Inc(s) he does care
And for-the-rich welfare
Disguised by his off the wall acts...

For the failure of banks

Bastard of Middle Class
overworked cog in capitalism’s ever-quickening pace 
bastard son of middle class
dressed in proper trappings
yet blinded 
by economy’s firestorm
little chance to tie my proper shoes....

The Sea of Society
Not having much
A helpful hand
Keeps the poor 
On dry land

Having it all
To the rich it's free
Given boats
To sail the sea

Left to drowned
The middle class
Creating the survivors
That will outlast...

Premium Member Modern Leaders
If all is lost
and lost for all
Then what's the point
In standing tall
Cheats and scoundrels 
wall to wall
Middle class
is poised to fall
Our fathers hopes
Beyond recall
As modern leaders
Drop the ball...

When (Nonet)
You both say you have the middle class, 
In mind to help their struggle now,
Where have you both been before?
We’ve been struggling for years,
Senators can’t help,
Just presidents,
Maybe so,
We’ll see,
When...

Literary Classes
The Lower class
Have people interpret the words for them.

The Middle class
Simply read with their eyes.

The Upper class
Do not read at all.
In fact,
They just stare at a blank page because 
If you are rich enough,
You are the poem....

Seems like such a good thing, 
too bad there’s an agenda; 
It’s strangling the middle class,
making us all dependent
under the guise of a helping hand;
Later we will see the remnants 
upside down  and inflated;
Shame on us for letting them....

Behind the Veil
Hiding in the middle class,
I made my way through life

Looking like I had it made,
no struggle and no strife

Others couldn’t see it,
as it metastasized inside

A terminal metamorphosis
—hidden from your eyes

Middle Class and High Class
strange these people
with elevator out of service face ...
   they would like to climb higher
but they stand still. In life...

Strange heart, Concorde face
people who would like to ascend to heaven
but who never realized the true height... of life...!..!...

She Was Ripped Out of My Life
wall streets greed

ripped through my life

like bullets from a machinegun

ripping me from the middle class

and ripping her out of my life

ripping her beautiful eyes

her beautiful smile

her beautiful caresses

her beautiful voice

her beautiful comforts

gone for good....

Nope, benefits for the wealthy does not 
trickle down to middle-class
and the poor, that's nonsense.

Enriching captains of industry? Please.
What about the little guys?
They deserve a leg up!

Premium Member Hi
Hi !
      

      Fashionable Rosy leaned on a post.
      With posy of rose came close
      Middle class guy Bobby
      getting down from a lobby,
       addressed to propose,
        ‘Hi !’   I love you most.’

This country's wealth is owed to loans
A debit the public now owns 
We're told there’s no cost
But old lifestyles are lost
Over war and pork barrel bones

The public’s frail pockets they pick
Politicians and banksters trick    
And prime the nation  
With graft and inflation 
Thus making the middle class sick...

Face To Faith
From Face to Faith

As Christianity sinks into
ennui of middle class tosh
of an all forgiving God.

Zionists, claim the right
to defend themselves against
the people they robbed.

Moslem zealots are busy
blowing each other up
and playing the victim.

Atheists are hateful of
those who believe in God,
call them deluded....

Their Cryptic Elite Of, Sleepy Hollow
International terrorists in a figurative sense and growing numb to this slaughter...
Bewitched they believe that there is no god aside thee ? Fixations, fashioned figurines 
Chanting off with their heads the middle class row his Cu Clux Plan from her Southern poll ?
Shouting someone get love's gun out of Bobbie Woe's hand; Guildman Saxe, these be foreign sands....
