The Bottom Line
by Merry C. Battles

©2005,2007Merry C. Battles

The bottom line will do anything
to get what it wants.
It will pollute our rivers and
damage our minds.
It will cheat and steal legally,
Not caring where is the next buck.
It will lie and represent anything to
Make those numbers roll.
Roll up only.
And if on the way down,
It will kill off or fire,
That unlucky sap that stands on
The bottom line.
What is this thing?
A pot that can only grow,
Or heads will spin.
What price riches?
Destruction of our glorious planet.
Defilement of our once - pristine minds.
Where can we run from those bottom lines?
