My Example
Statism (Bev-A-Lyn Rhyme)
Tribes were unified
that their needs were satisfied.
Upon each other members relied.
People
aggregate where economic benefits are bestowed,
where law-makers have deemed that to each a stipend is owed.
Then grift will cause working ethics to erode.
Earning
one’s way allows welfare to accrue
but transfers from me to you
won’t help us all to
Prosper.
