I don’t doubt it’s all fixed…

I don’t doubt it’s all fixed…

A Poem by Mark Heathcote

 

There is a cycle to all this our misery

I for one! Don’t doubt it’s all fixed.

We’ll have 5yrs in thirty of prosperity…

Feelings akin to a jewel thief

Followed by 7yrs of deep recession…

So at least ten out of every thirty,

We’ll have to be very thrifty.

 

We’ll see some good growth, accumulation

When maybe we’re fifty?

But wherever you are on this hill of beans there’ll be

Another recession just starting…

Or another abysmal one even now just ending!

But you can bet the banker he is loaded

…Expanding his margins and your losses.

 

Yes, there is a cycle to all this our misery

And I for one don’t doubt it’s all fixed.

So let us all get thrifty and close our accounts...

And demand cash for payment again….

And say amen to the bankers without loyalty

And say amen to the banks royally. Amen!

About
I like all kinds of poems but I tend to gravitate toward eastern spiritual poetry. My muse almost demands it of me. So you may find quite a few being poured out from time to time. I all so write man.. more..
