Dear China

.

It is with a great deal of admiration

watching you out capitalize capitalism,

stealing proprietary property, way

to go.
.

We do it clandestinely, like

a billion Facebook user's personal

profiles to tilt elections and then

make out like cheeze factory fat cat

before congress with schoolboy

charm.
.

We steal power and position,

we undermine, ruin the reputation,

and anything else that will get

us first in line. You have a lot to learn

China.
.

We've been at it a while,

this new tech theft, this taking

for our own another country's

creativity.

.

You just have to do it without

getting caught and if you get

a big international prize for stealing

well, all the better.

.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

For those who believe everything written, this is satire. 
The author is lying and stealing. :D

I forgive myself for writers lies...

Otherwise known as storytelling. It's funny how us writers lie and steal. How could we write satire without doing so?

A Borrowed Notion Or Four

I take from the news shamelessly, they are very eloquent and poetic - and sometimes I hear them using me so we kind come out null. :D

Found Poetry

I figure, if you are not going to do anything else with that notion, I'll write it down in poetry. Never at loss for topics. Turn on tv or radio and start writing :D

Not Oligarchs

They get caught and bank account frozen. In w.h. they get retired or fired. In the real world of hypocrits, you get exiled or banished, or talked about badly. U R rite, U get caught and outed. The shame! :D
