[hometext] => More truth than we need...
[bodytext] => The next time you’re gone, take a few facts along; You can casually bandy about; Should you win a bet; kindly send me a check; (Be prepared if you lose to duck out). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David and Ezra started their business in 1892. In 1977 it was modernized for you! It was bound to succeed, and it did indeed, with a newer upscale niche; And that is why, we still can buy from ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH Insta-Burger fast food was almost the last food it sold. In /'/53 they sold their store to conglomerate, Pillsbury. It was bought by Brazil; who owns it all still; but its still in the USA. And here is the thing; its called BURGER KING; and Brazil says you’ll have it their way! Three guys who worked for Paypal way back in 2005; Started a business in a garage that quickly began to thrive! They sold it to Google, kit and kaboodle; For 300 million a piece! And 2 million shows a day we all know; Makes YOUTUBE the business to beat! That wonderful HAPPY BIRTHDAY song paid royalties whenever; Sung in movies or TV shows; but that couldn’t go on forever! Time-Warner would clear 2 million a year; for 30 years royalties; But time has run out; they’ve lost all their clout; And now you can sing it for free! Audi, Bugatti and Bently; Lamborghini and Porsche; All wholly owned right down to their bones, by VOLKSWAGON, of course! A&E, HULU, Star Wars, and who knew; Pixar, and ABC all; For years have belonged to the business whose song; Tells us ITS A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL! With its 900 planes, this company can claim; They own more than the British Air Force! So should war interrupt; put your food tray back up; You’ll be flying AA the whole course! EXON had to pay, to clean up the bay, from the Exon Valdez spill. The 17 million a day that they spent, seems like a lot until; We found that their income, could pay it and then some; Earning 93 million a day! With that kind of luck it was drops in the bucket; And if they gave their reserves away; The whole population of every world nation; Would get 3 barrels each, today! Nobody tells us how AMAZON sells us; More products than anyone reckoned; But others look pale when we tell them their sales; Exceed 400 items per second! SAMSUNG alone has grown on its own; To 300,000 employees! Microsoft, Apple, and Google we find, Cant beat that number even combined! ----------------------------------------------------------------- Just silly facts; for which no one asked; That someone gets paid to keep track of! Unfortunately, that persons not me; You can tell by my income, (or lack of!)

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
