Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

He went looking for a bargain
But had to cut through the jargon
And found that the global recession
Was his own personal transgression

  3. He spent more than he had
    With a check that was bad...
    Now he lives a guest of the state
    With his new cell mate, named Brutal.

  5. He'd bought it all once before
    So he took himself out of the store
    Stopped at the bank, saved his money
    And went home without a gift for Honey.

    His mind became obsessed
    and overly distressed
    He knew his rate of borrowing
    Had helped the worldwide sorrowing
    Now everyone's depressed.

  8. He caught a good earful over the mess
    From most of his friends and all of the press
    So he straightened his tie and tried to look regal
    And quoth, "When the president does it, it's not illegal!"

    (Yes, we can still get a little mileage out of Dubyaisms. For a while anyway.)
