Discrepancy

of that asset in return for the rights to utilize the asset's capacity.
Capacity payments can be significant revenue sources for generators
because generator would still get paid even if it produced no electricity.

3.Then Pakistan doesn't have resources to give any subsidy.

Frozen Heart

Frozen Heart

There once was two lovers, one of them died.
Which shattered the heart if the other and made her cry.
The pain ran so deep,
She could no longer sleep.
And was barely able to breathe.
From the weight of a thousand devils who would not let her be.

Then one night, amongst her cries, another voice arose.
It was her love (though dead now) it must have been his ghost.
Her cries subsidised as his voice cut through her mind.
She heard his word (though his face was blind.)
He told her that her pain could end and they could be together.
All she had to do was cut out her heart and mend it back together.

She grabbed a dagger and plunged it deep and snipped away the edges.
Her heart plopped out in pieces and was surrounded by some angels.
Her body lay still as the angels, by their will, kept her animated.
She somehow managed to sew up the heart, amazed at what she created.

And knowing if she put it back inside, it would, one day decay.
She froze it deep inside the lake.
Where it sits to this very day.

Fair and Sunny With Bounce

Benefits and bonuses should be eliminated
as a less invasive cap,
both have a design that hides
up to fifty percent more than fair market value,
the sun is so bright,
oh say can you see,
shadows it casts out of sight,
oh say can you see,
by the dawns early light,
the government would supply extended benefits,
the rest would be paid by the recipient,
not by insurance subsidised by all the people,
bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.

Death of a Town

A town wheezes the last rites over 
its people through phlegm-ridden
lungs and turgid cankers.

Its blistered wounds are coated 
in the mud that lines its harbour 
and creeks.

The loss of the dockyards was its lowest tide.

Now, existing work taunts the town from
the other side of the harbour, 
separated by low tides and disused ferries.

As the town slides closer to its knees,
the landlords willingly house 
the subsidised washouts.

And gang fights marry into husband 
and wife fights, twisted around petty 
pride and sectarian bigotry. 

Leaving kids to run about half-stoned 
and roaring with cider, where the 
unpredictable waits around the corner.

And rape happens behind the church, 
under God's careful watch, where worship
of the needle leaves only emptied lives.

And lost souls sleep under cardboard palaces.

This is a town that wants them out, so that 
it can shut the doors, draw the blinds
and start again.

Daily News

As the daily news I was reading,
Here is the story that was leading,
Zombie spider slaves, wasp masters dictating, 
Subsidised fake spider skills,
Wasp masters must be getting their thrills,
I sense an allegory,
Like humanity's history,
Teeming ants in a global rat race,
Pleasing some master's lack of grace,
Same scenario, different day,
Till you retire and fade away,
Who indeed are the wasp masters?
Come on, humans, work much faster!
Don't you forget to hurry!
Or wasp masters will give you curry.

As the daily news I was reading,
Is there no other news for leading?
Yes, allegory I was perceiving.

Raise the Taxes

a box of crackers
a loaf of bread
five cookies
four cans of soup
no meat
thats what they give you at the food bank
to las you three months
till your next government cheque

on disability
disabled 
wheelchairs
unemployed
or deaf
mentally ill
living off less than a thousand dollars a month
not enough subsidised housing
but jump through our hoops
and come to our day program hungry and confused
for councelling
is what you get

The soup kitchen serves the same gruel
and it soo far away
preached to
when all you want is some food
and you know the truth no one gives
when the poor and needy need to recieve
i can solve this simply 
believ in me

RAISE THE TAXES
give us more money
control the prices of your inflation in the market economy
set rent at a reasonable price
before i starve to death
and tell you how many days
i truthfully go to bed hungry
and dream about the chocolate sprinkles on the designer coffee
and wish i had clean clothes to wear 
in the midst of you cover models
working to doctor the billion dollar industry of poverty
