Freedom

American Dream:

worship Go-Getters; healthcare

failed, public squalor

ELECTION  08/11/16 #1

It’s all over, folks.

Got Bachelor’s or Master’s?

Forget about it!

Act dumb now; when going out

Pretend to drag your knuckles

Posted Notes: Austerity #5

AUSTERITY  # 5

Serfdom’s yoke exchanged

For benefits or forfeit;

Modern slavery;

We should be angry, but Brits

Lack this quality, alas.

Posted Notes: Austerity #4

AUSTERITY  #4

Evictions, foodbanks,

Disenfranchisements, welcome

To Britain, where sneering rich

And bureaucracy

Persecute the nation’s poor;

Starving homeless can’t revolt

Posted Notes: Austerity # 3

AUSTERITY # 3

Controlled cruelty,

Put the poor in pillory,

Humiliation,

Browbeat into submission,

This contemptible country.

Posted Notes: Austerity #2

AUSTERITY # 2

State persecution

Of welfare claimants, an old

British sport; treat them

Like dogs, pat them on the head,

Then beat them with a cudgel;

In fact, dogs are better off.

Posted Notes: Austerity #1

AUSTERITY  #1

British Government

Inflicts humiliation

Upon country’s poor,

Imposing welfare sanctions;

Too weak for revolution

Posted Notes- Telephone Banking

TELEPHONE BANKING

 

We are listening to you,

Assuming you get through,

So you’ll have to wait though.

 

Time is not enough;

Wonder what they do,

When they take your dough.

 

Makes you want to throw

A phone, a chair or two;

Are you there – hello?
