'Tis a fact of life and facts of life can be hard <br />You give some people and inch and they will take a yard <br />They always do take far more than they are due <br />That greed begets greed happens for to be true <br />With their type it is never live and let live <br />They always do take far more than they do give <br />You give some people a yard and they do take a mile <br />They know how to cover deception by guile <br />Their three special people are me, myself and I <br />And that's how they will be 'til the day that they die <br />They leave others to live in financial hell <br />But karma it surely will not serve them well <br />Yet sad to say some even their praises do sing <br />But not everyone is like them which is a good thing.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/facts-of-life-can-be-hard/
