Absent Minded
Fool me once shame on me, but three times now?(hackers unite)
You say your offering a free service
so i sign up
smile on my face
to be used
as i add my files to your data base
all my pictures
all my links
all my ideas
and low and behold i advertise this for you
hey a free service
little do i know im the fool of the way the world truly is
hey a good idea
someone who is making money off of advertisers and helping the little guy
boy was i wrong
for now after i have slaved for them for months
finding pictures i liked and uploading them
finding pictures on the net and adding them to their filebase
now i work three jobs for free
called free services
then i dont get paid
not a dollar an hour
not a penny
nothing
NOT A THING
justa free service from me
and guess how i get thanked for helping them?
fooled
for after i share my pictures and advertise their service
and they have made money off of advertisers advertising to me
they want me to pay now to access my pictures i added to their database
they want me to pay them for advertising for them
for the slideshows on my poetry pages
so not only am i working for them for free
but they want me to pay them to work for them
and think im having fun doing it
not only arte they making money off of the advertisers advertising to me
and i help them advertise
but now im supposed to pay to work
pay to work a job that doesnt even pay me?
I give up
Strike two internet
Hackers gather round
this nonexistant crime scene puzzle matrix of rip[ping people off at arms length
has to be stopped
i no longer have trust in fellow man
near or far
and work three jobs for free
and pay to work them
this has got to stop
i do not enjoy this
and will not and it cannot go on
fool me once shame on me
fool me three times
and who do you think ur kidding?
Now you have my poems
now you have my pictures
you are worse than fourty thieves with a genie
taking turns robbing a god
it takes me one wish to remove my curse and im getting closer to my object to crave
and dont think i cant fathom this puzzle
for a puzzle it is not
and your tracks are not mere shadows upon walls i cannot trace
fool me once and make me pay
and two more times at my expense
choke on your laughter and the joke im not telling
ask the comedian upon your funeral
the tales of woe of my dreams you have stolen
the jobs i am working for nothing
and who owes me what for the hours i put in everyday for these multi million dollar
corporations yet im not on the payroll
who do you think you are kidding
The computer is a fad
so get alife
the time capsule of your internet is almost set
soon enough i will remind them all and pull the wool off the wolf
so don't forget
you fooled me once and i was willing the first time
now its your turn for your surprise
bringing me to my slaughterhopuse paradise of yuour denial
my royal treatment of your banishment from this rock
to be thrown away to survive and rise to the next colony
Who did you think you were kidding?
pay you to work for you?
as i work for free?
WHERE ARE MY ROYALTIES
im not asking again myspace
im not asking again photobucket
im not asking again
i will begin demanding as i create all these online personalities
and friends from overseas of good and bad intentions
how safe are we?
where is the money you owe me
for advertiosing you and help[ing you for free?
where is my publisher?
where is my photographer?
where is my band?
where is my architect?
where is my paycheque for working 40 hours every 3 days for a job that doesnt pay?
that i have to pay for?
and out come the lawsuits for the music and dvds i ripped off
for the amount of nothing i got for putting what i put into it
well sorry for wanting somethiong in return for all my hardwork
where is my lawyer?
where is my doctor?
where is my witness protection program?
fooled me once
you better think twice if you think im going to sign up for another job
a job to work for that makes them billions of dollars that i eventually have to pay for
WHERE IS MY CHEQUE?
where is my money?
where is my piece of the pie?
why are there hackers?
any one have any ideas how to prevent this from being overthrown
you have five months
november and the hackers will show you firewalls mean nothing
and the spies from around will show you what they know
and if the people like me working four jobs on the net fpor free
and thgen have to pay to have access to their stuff never get paid
messy as a tornado
