Occupy Wall Street

True patriotism
loses out to politics,
business and money.

Business and money,
the end justifies the means,
more lies to live by.

More lies to live by,
trickledown economics,
tax breaks for the rich.

Tax breaks for the rich,
more debt for the middle class,
nothing for the poor.

Nothing for the poor,
deficits out of control,
time to Occupy.

Time to Occupy
Wall Street bankers and brokers,
true patriotism.
