    YOUR INSIDE IS OUT AND EVERYONE CAN SEE IT

    you go to church each sunday
    and sit the front row up
    when they pass around the offering
    you put a twenty in the cup
    you wave the bill all around
    making sure the people see
    but money isn't the answer
    it can't set you free

    you put the sticker on your window
    making sure that it shows
    it says you give united
    and you let the neighbors know
    all the things that you're doing
    you're doing for yourself
    if you ask for my opinon
    you're making your own hell

    you say you love your brother
    and would help him all you can
    but when it comes right down to it
    you really don't give a damn
    all your money and prestige
    amount to less than a crumb
    you could fit into a thimble
    all the good that you've done

    The disguises some people wear. Seen to much of this looking good in the public bull. Nice write bringing them into the light. 10

    No BS around here...this piece is sharp and piercing. I love the cynicism and the way you reel us is. Great write indeed!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
