WE MUST BELIEVE

A long time ago the wheel

Was invented.  It provided

A smooth ride for your wagon

When pulled by animals.

One man named Ale Gores

Claimed that the wheels would

Cause trenches and eventually,

Craters which would make

Travel impossible.  He suggested

Square wheels which wouldn’t

Provide smooth rides, but would

Pack the roads down and save

The planet.  He called it the

New Square Deal.  It would save

Us from future misery, even though

It would cost more.  The poor

Would especially be hard hit.

Mr. Gores found that many

People believed him and sent

Money to him in an effort to

Bring his solution to reality.

He traveled around in a coach,

With large round wheels,

Drawn by six horses.  He was

Hailed wherever he went and

Took in a lot of money to

Support his cause even though

The square wheels caused the

Body to get out of alignment.

New businesses were started to

Address these problems.  More

Animals were needed because of

The intense labor needed to pull

The wagons and coaches.  Gores

Agreed that the round wheels were

Good but the accumulated cost

Made him attempt to “Build Back Better”

It became his motto and thrilled

The people to the point that they

Gave more money to get the plan

Moving and in doing so made Ale

A very rich man.
