Poems A-Z Yuppie

6/6/2010

0 Comments

 
        The yuppie in his brand new Beemer

       A slick Wall Street trading schemer

        The wife in her bright stiletto pumps

      A bum’s luck is down in the dumps

        The yuppies see a simple solution

      A coalition of corporate collusion

        The bum sees evil greed

      A sole cause of people in need

        The yuppie points out all the bum’s sins

      A cause and effect of all the wrong friends

        The bum alludes to the yuppie’s schemes

      A lucky connection with successful genes

        The blame sees no social side

      A fact of life or downward slide

        The finger pointing strains the facts

     A major cause of foundation’s cracks

        The yuppie closes his eyes to sleep

      A bum on a bus bench starts to weep
