Money called and promised, so fluid in its scope.
Kings and those in power wrote promises on notes.

Temptations to debasement, temptations to inflate.
Became the real foundation of the governmental state.


And money still enticed us, and draws in those who steal.
Finessing, redefining, the units once were real.

Now with no foundation in sheep or even cheese
The money is all funny, and only Kings are pleased.


The flow of human commerce, so easy to abuse.
Is still the form adopted, that all of us must use.

We count up paper icons, inscribed with those now gone.
We trust in those who make them, despite the fact their wrong.


We need the fluid functions that money can provide.
While all the self anointed kings count, and so decide.



Those in power, from kings to presidents, have always used the system to steal. This has never been more true that in the America of the last century.


Fiat money, that endlessly self multiplying stuff has allowed the FED to perpetuate a scheme so outrageous that every Ponzi-scheming con man is dumb struck with envy; has enabled government, and those corporations, like the FED, to spend and trade us into penury.


This summer we are approaching the culmination of the plans so long in the making as such instruments as Blackstone Group, LP finish off the job.
