Monetary Gimmicks
Hard
to make sense of all this life gimmicks
a people so mighty, a people so daring
a thug so careless, a rogue so uncaring.
Hard
to make sense of these monetary gimmicks
a commoner toiling for daily bread
and a debtor wallowing in borrowed riches
who do we say has earned genuine bread?
A violent robber and a mighty debtor
who do we say is State-friendly?
Hard
to make sense of these hanky panky paradoxes
a countryman who is so high yet stoops so low
as to consume the goose that lays the egg.
