Be certain to insure your treasures <br />Forget the rest take no half measures <br />Make sure you insulate your loft <br />And sleep on pillows extra soft <br />Around your castle build your fence <br />Fiscally it all makes sense <br />Time bombs tick, the race is on <br />Fingers click and it's all gone. <br /> <br />Hide your stash, invest your cash <br />Rats race, before your bankers crash <br />Longer hours, fewer flowers <br />Locked inside your ivory towers. <br />Fat cats litter your profession <br />Now lean and bitter with recession <br />You'll need your scotch and mogadon <br />Fingers click and it's all gone. <br /> <br />Children missing bedtime stories <br />Now listen to your faded glories. <br />Excuses never meant a thing <br />To the woman toying with your ring <br />Lancelot swept her from her feet <br />Now Guinevere smells his defeat <br />Promises sir, like your armour shone <br />Fingers click and it's all gone.<br /><br />Kevin East<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/click-of-fingers/
