Don’t say “We”, unless you have a toad in your pocket <br />For you’ll soon find something amiss under the blanket <br />That you so carefully share with the toads that put us where <br />The financial system is challenged everwhere. <br /> <br />‘Twas Dodd and especially Barney Frank <br />That put the housing industry in the tank. <br />Marching to a drummer that would have all who quested <br />A mansion, if they only financing requested. <br /> <br />Freddie and Fanny opened up their arms <br />To the wissom boyinsh charms <br />Of Barnie who could not be assailed <br />For reasons that cannot be told. <br /> <br />And of course the head haunchoee (plural) <br />Left with a purse full of monetary rewards <br />Having watched over the burdegeoning mess <br />They quietly retired without redress. <br /> <br />On second thought, you have chosen the correct form, <br />“We” is the best to describe the apple’s worm(s) . <br /> <br /> <br />(In response to an article in the Wall Street Journal (op-ed, July,20 2011))<br /><br />Sidi J.
