Short Pay Up Poems

         Pony-up, you owe the money
           Your protests, not even funny

         When you win, we pay up fast
           The about-face ~ What a contrast

we wait between tears and dreams
for loves slippery reward.
we share our dreams with night,
who's distant love falls as
shattered glass along our
vulnerable heart....

Soon will be time to pay income tax
They don’t care if you E or send fax
The result is the same
You pay up ‘til you claim
You’re clean like by a dose of exlax

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....

Pay the Piper, 
he has come to collect.
Empty your pockets, 
eliminate your debt.

The joyride is over,
it came with a price.
The Piper knows the amount, 
he is  extremely precise.

Revenge has many forms,
it has finally come to interrupt.
Today it takes the shape of the Piper, 
time to pay up....

<                    hes my banker and my heads horseman
                      calling bounty on anothers land
                      hark the herald angels
                      I think this game is swell
                      now thimble owes me sixty five grand

Welcome to the parade
Where lost souls and memories
Come to gather 

Everyone wants to enter
And everyone wants to leave
But only the entrance is free

It’s all black and white and Technicolor
Pixels and polygons
Where the old collides with the new

Take a ride on regret
Have a bite of introspection
And be sure to take a picture

And when all is said and done
Pay up your exit fee
And have a safe trip home...
