ODDITIES (3 4 & 5)

Michael Edwards

 

People in glasses should learn to swim

Long before water is poured therein.

 

I’ll not quote you verbatim

 infra dignitatem

 

Gather round I’ll tell no lie,

money talks, it says: ‘Goodbye’.

          (thanks Michael
          such a great distillation
          of insightful Truth
          in an eloquent write, inspired
          this feeble
          poetic reply
          from me, forgive me
          I had to try)
          'Goodbye to your integrity
          sold, at cost

          and your self-worth
          valued, below the belt

          where it's all, clown smiles
          and tears, at that bitter end

          of red envelopes
          as your, cake slices

          of consequence...!'
