Rigged
Most of us now know
The game is rigged,
But we still play along,
What the hell else is
There to do,
We buy the lottery tickets,
Shake our heads
At the bailed out boys
Still getting bonuses,
Shrug and pay taxes
On taxes,
Stare in stupefied wonder
As our politicians
And their long winded lobbyists
Tell us why we cannot
Afford decent health care
For everyone,
Why billions for bombs
Is a patriotic necessity.
