European Popular Music
He Liked His Easy Listening Channel
Except when they snuck in Eurotrash.
Third-rate from the lands of fifth-rate.
Where homeless immigrants piss on
the crumbling History remaining.
And in which the Poles masquerade as Poles,
Italians as Italians etc.
As they entertain with tinny renditions of
instantly defunct songs on an endless line
of grimy cruise ships.
And “Cafe’s” too.” So...very...quaint!
He can’t contain himself! with this final thought.

“Let's have the talent”
TV director noted for
poisonous enunciation
of that terminal word.
The bank director romances
it, calling it in for bonuses
after government bailouts.
Captain Blood has risen!--
to a boil.
Unfortunately, prisons
mobbed with those
equally as gifted.

Talent
The Firm, ruined
for all intents and
seedy purposes
sucks bailout juice
from Uncle and amps
a truly magnificent
portion thereof for
bonuses, retaining
thus, executive "talent."
Any more of the latter
and we'll all be shoving
battered shopping carts
to rescue wretched lamps from
dumpsters and keep our place
at the raucous soup kitchen.
