BOSS’S BOONDOGGLE

The Boss of bosses did decree
a neverending spending spree.
He called upon his corrupt crew
to do the worst that they could do.

His heralds duly panicked those
who might suggest spending be froze,
by pulling wool and splitting hairs
in claiming all de fault was theirs.

And so their freedom fell anon
as wealth was drained in a big con.
The trusting folk lost all they had
because they could not see the bad.
