Oh Please, Let's Focus on the Deficit

Oh Please, Let's Focus on the Deficit

A Story by Easter3
"

When you're Thirsty which sould you rather have, a full Glass of Water or a Deficit ?

"

Oh Please, Let’s Focus on the Deficit

When the glass of Water We Worked so hard to fill to the rim gets bumped and knocked about

And All of the Life Sustaining Water in the Glass splashes uselessly to the Floor

Let’s Focus on the Deficit - the Empty Glass - the wasted and tainted Water on the Floor

Instead of returning to the Faucet from which the Water was first drawn and received into Our Glass or another Water Faucet altogether

Let’s Focus on the Deficit and punitively refuse to return to the Faucet or Seek another

Or even better

Let’s Austerely only allow the Faucet to drip out one drop of Water at a Time into Our awaiting Empty Glass

While over Time We grow Thirstier - ever Thirstier

While delusionally chasing after one prearranged Mirage after another

Because Mirages are busy little shifting things

Mirages and Deficits

Oh Please, Let’s in lingering Austerity watch our Glass ever so slowly drip-drop Full once again

A Nation can Die of Thirst bound by the Opportunity shrinkage and evaporation of Austerity

But, by all means, Global Leaders

Let’s Focus on the Deficit

Oh yes, the very same Deficit Created by Our Global Economic and Corporate Gurus (and their political and judiciary minions)

Most of whom bumped and knocked about Our Global Economic and Structural Water Glass causing Our Life Sustaining Water to spill out all over the dirty Floor to begin with

Please, tell all of the Thirsty Peoples’ of the World again why We should

All Focus on the Deficit - Your Deficit

Which has now BeCome All of Our Deficit.

Oops, Everyone’s Deficit but the Real Deficit Creators because they have other Water Faucets to run off to and previously hoarded other Glasses of Water prepared and awaiting them for the Economic draught they knew was Coming because They initiated and Seeded it in order to Quench Their Thirst and keep Their lives Sustained

While the Rest of the Peoples’ of the World De-Hydrate - Dry Up

And Some even wither and rasp into Non-Existence

But, Please, Oh Please, Let’s Focus on the Deficit

Instead of the Water Faucets

Unless of course the People’s of the World are finally ready for a Drink
