Take Any Subcommittee
& listen to the rhetoric
often running counter
to the bucks floating
into pockets. But
when push comes to shove
wink comes to nudge, & one
votes the right way. Uh huh,
& what would you or I do
differently? Be crooks too.
Though small ones probably.
Elbow room for measured bribery
& you need the absolute dough
for election and whatever.
That a few get jailed is sure-
ly both a miracle of justice
& examples of crossing
the greasy bar to total greed.
