The 1% Rise in Protest!

They pay, they pronounce,
what’s legally owed in
taxes. Change the law!

rag they if you don’t
especially cotton to it.

In the Land of the Free
one man’s Law is

another’s screwing.
But it’s so important

for the Nation that
the Rich soldier on

as they face impiety
from all sides,
save the legislative.

All Heart


-The stable boys are acting up! They want quarter
more an hour.

-I’m on the fuckin phone all morning screaming! And you
bring me this, Chubby? Fire every fuckin one!

-Now, Chief.

-Now Chief my ass! What's next after uppity spicks?

-Be some trouble replacing...

-Your problem. Don't bother me. What Spanish for
You’re fired?

.....

-Their spokesman, Jose begged me to--

-Your typical fat heart! Let him talk then, Chubby. I won't understand a word anyway.

-Please, Sir...

-Staring at his feet. Get that, Chubby! It's Dickens
or something. Cap in hand! OK, give them another
dime an hour. Get him out of here before he starts
to thank me.

...

-They're lucky wasn’t my father or grandfather: Cut the
wages in half! Well, what the hell! We live in more
enlightened times. And I’m the tender heart. More bark
than bite, I know. Oh what the hell! They knew they were dealing with a softy. I’ve lost millions with this heart
of mine!

Justice Delayed Is Not Justice Denied

Much blab inside the forums
of revolutionary revenge

against the 1%. Uh huh.
Well, laws exist to claw

molto back from their most
grotesque of brigands. Hearts

in righteous bosoms pray
legislators so rawly bribed,
and winking-nudged enforcers

will be broadly shamed thereby.
Good luck with that, and further
feel-warm moralistic fantasy.
