TO BAD FOR THOSE THAT WOULD PAY BACK

JUST BENIGN

BEING BENIGN

 

 

I’M MAKING A LIVING

GIVING AWAY MORE MONEY THEN RECIEVING

PEOPLE WITH NO CONVICTION

AND PLENTY OF CONSUMPTION

 TIME IS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY

AS LENDING MONEY IS A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME

JUST TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING

JUST TRYING TO MAKE ENDS MEET

AS LIFE INVITES NEW FRIENDS

SOME WHO SPEAK IN RHYTHEMS AND RHYMES

JUST TO MARKET MY MONEY

THEY JUST WANT TO BARROW SOME MONEY

ONCE THEY HAVE IT

THEY FORGET WHO I AM

NOW YOU DON’T EVEN SEE THEM AS MUCH

THEY PEEK AND THEY PEER

HOPING I WILL DISAPPEAR

JUST TO ASK SOMEONE ELSE FOR MORE

BORROWING MONEY THEY NEVER CARE

BARROWING MONEY I WOULD NEVER DARE

FOR IF YOU BELIEVE YOU’RE A FRIEND

THEN SOMETHING IS QUITE CLEAR

JUST PAY ME BACK

NO INTEREST, THAT’S FAIR

TO BAD I’M JUST BENIGN

IF I WOULD JUST NOT LEND MONEY

I’D BE JUST FINE

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
