Priced Out

Kurt Philip Behm

How will you ever

afford yourself

 the cost

  beyond your means

How will you pay

the price of longing

financing

your dreams

How will you leverage

the cost of hope

interest rates

on fire

How will you love

your heart

in debt

— bankrupting desire

    Inflation not at expected levels they say but how do they figure it? The dropped the interest rate by ,5 but my credit cards don't reflect it. I guess it is the same here or there. Just have to put off my home in the sky. Nicely done Kurt

      Yep, but the politicians always win.
