One year ago I wished that I <br />A banker great might be <br />With a hundred million dollars <br />And financial majesty; <br /> <br />A mighty Wall Street banker <br />With a whopping lot of power <br />And an income of somewhere around <br />A thousand plunks per hour; <br /> <br />A solid Wall Street banker <br />With securities in sacks <br />And with clever men to show me <br />How to pay no income tax; <br /> <br />A wealthy Wall Street banker <br />Who raked in cash like hay; <br />I wished that just a year ago— <br />And I wish the same today.<br /><br />Ellis Parker Butler<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/would-you-believe-it-2/
