Other Verities
by Peter Erich
Into every pocket a hand is expected.
Every award show is a distraction.
Every asphalt lot has a slope.
He who is well hydrated, won't sweat you
Corrupt officials and tax evaders will break the banks
and then they will change the rules.
A stitch sewn is a penny saved
and ill-gotten gains cannot be counted.
Clever *
Well done. Reads like a Shakespearean list of life lessons. *
