TICKER TAPE PARADE FOR IDIOTS
We get the government we deserve-
For all the feckless breeding rabbits
who's fecundity depends on writing
their 'autograph' every week
for their rabbit food-
Myxomatosis is too good for you
Bankers of the world, united by
edacious risk-taking who now
rake the lucrative rewards for
quelling all dissent in the Boardroom
A pair of 'Golden-Handcuffs'...should
just be that
Our Politicians-vying for our
crosses-seem to have forgotten
the assurance we used to place in
their contrivances
We will keep them in check with
toothless laws that erode further
veracious morality.
In the meanwhile,
roll out the
Ticker Tape...
We need a path
for the deification
of the asinine.
