 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

TELLING IT LIKE IT IS



These are the people who want us
to pay for their health insurance
Two daughters graduated from college
Student loans payed by us for poor students
Have not made a house payment in eighteen months
Sure they lost the home But free rent
$750,000 home all new furnishings free
One of those bank loans by the wizards
This year getting million dollar bonuses
New loans moving into another new home
After all every family should have a home
Business vacations, have no business in
South America, buying gold stocks
Left Mom and Pop Am Store in California
In the middle of the night payed nothing
and left after months of paying no debts
Bank loans given to those needing and poor
Took everything including fixtures
Today proud voting Democrats, Obama fans
Called to say they just bought a new 24Ft boat
And to remind us to vote for the Health plan
Yes I am dumb but not totally stupid
Vote the people running this scam out
of office by 2012 and put these people
where the truly belong, poor homeless
They have money for Marijuana and Cocaine
OH, and while you vote, for legalizing Marijuana
Oh, political me embarrassed they are family
