THE GREATER GOOD

Helping other people is like building a bridge
Don’t worry my friend; I only know a few cords
Ideological changes are not a surprise
Keeping them in check is not something new

We have a few willing to step up
To keep economics in line with physics
We have checks and balances – that we know
But corruption, so dynamic, has the floor

I have strummed this tune before
Perhaps off key, but my truth will prevail
We have to temper this ludicrousness
Or the principles of the Red, White, and Blue will fail

I strum out let’s all be equal
But this would be disingenuous
Because under this system the only equality
Would be that we are all equally in misery

Wokeism does not require trillions
Mislabeling what we are doing is communism
Corporate America is anti-America
The mob can only be bought off for a while

How long can congress be bought off then
Before all sides of the issue say – stop
Let us stop election fraud
And other inequalities that are so broad

Should Microsoft become China-soft?
Should the rich become richer and poor become poorer?
Corporate America is held in contempt
The desire to exist without paying rent
