A Better Way

Cindy built a world of steady work and solid success.
The new guy sold it out for today's profits or less.
Thanks donors, he says, I call it "business."
What now - false advertising, sell the holydays, & its anybody's guess.
*
Weave our own endowments,
Said the blue bird on the dresser,
We'll use And How! uncommon scents
The pig's tale is an imaginative guesser.
*
If we're on the fast-track going nowhere,
Yet can knit purl curling sweaters on a dare,
Henna wash our very own hair,
and
Re-upholster one or another old chair.
It's only the first of May & we've got a certain flair.
*
Money heavy Law Day
The broke back countin' is far from okay
It was time to clean and play
Before the first of May
Tomorrow we want a better way.
