Four hundred million dollars
For a
ballroom for the prez,
The funding
from some private sources;
Least that’s
what he sez.
A billion
dollars daily
For the
conflict in Iran.
You’d think
there could be better things
To spend that
money on.
To people
who can’t pay the rent
Or have to
sometimes choose
Between food
or medications,
It must seem
they always lose.
Since the government
is more concerned
With how it
is perceived,
Though the
way things are presented,
It’s more
mocked now than believed.
I try to
block these stories
But when
mentioned in the news,
All these
million billion numbers
Make me want
to blow a fuse.
