Quite uncharacteristic of you but a wonderful and soulful read.

Kabu, this poem reminded me of "Public Enemy Number One",
an old gangster movie with James Cagney...I could see and hear him with that tough-guy look and voice..

Excellent, Dear Kabu!
I have no problem with those who play fair and are rewarded handsomely for their energy, imagination, talent, etc. The ones who lie, cheat, steal, corrupt and make the hard work of the masses meaningless are the criminals the protests are rightfully calling out.

This is what my bank feels like to me, all the money, dangling it just out of reach and then snatching it back just when I think I am close to getting a slice! sam

A very topical post in these economic times. Reading this I was thinking about the Occupy Wall Street movement that is growing.

Yes I know the feeling Kabu we billionaires have to stick together you have made a true friend, did you say I could borrow a million, not a lot in the circumstances. I think I had better say a nice poem perhaps I could borrow a straw to suck up my soup. You see I am everywhere.
