Of Goldman Sachs and the Many Sacks of Gold

 

All that glitters is Goldman Sachs.

The path of wealth a wealth of rats attracts.

Blankfein pays a bank fine as a frank sign that

                                                                                 banking is tanking

                                                                                 as an ethical endeavor.

Fraud is never never fraud

if you’re clever and you’ve sawed

all the regulators and restraints in half

infatuated with the Golden Calf.

And by filling politicians pockets

with the purloined platinum rockets

so provided to propel their next campaign

Here’s an observation from the great Mark Twain:

Some people don’t think very much of our Congress,

but I disagree.

I think we have the very best Congress

that money can buy.

In Darkest Night

 

In darkest night, a clear insight

will often come to some while sleeping,

the stirring of an inner light. 

In darkest night a clear insight

will seem to set the world aright

The benefit of tea through steeping

In darkest night, a clear insight

will often come to some while sleeping.
