Money Money Power Mouth

Poem

Kady Birdwhistle
Money money mouth
You are the one that holds me
Back I'm in foxhole

Drowning from the rain
You power is dollar signs
Please please keep me poor

Money Money power mouth
You make your phone calls to deny me
Money Money power mouth
You decided what I was before you've seen
ME

Money money mouth
You are such a fascist prig
Judging me today

You think you know me
Holder of the paycheck job
Please please keep me poor

Money money power mouth
You've not even given me the chance to prove
Money money power mouth
You've decided who I am, what I'm worth

Without even knowing me
Fascist

    Excelent job, Kady. I know how you feel on this level, too! Sometimes the rich and powerful keep themselves detached on purpose. It's easiest to cut someone's throat when you don't have to look them in the eyes!

    Sweetheart, do not let these people take your inner peace away. I am glad that you used your gift for words to blow off steam. This is healthy. The way I see it, it is their loss that they did not hire you.

    The moral is to keep away from powerful people.
