Five Houses of Money


First is the house of need.
Second is the house of want.
Third is the house of enough.
Fourth is the house of greed.
Fifth is the house of possession.

    Mash Up

    Acolytes of the Almighty
    Dollar squeeze
    That eagle’s talons
    As they hurtle above
    The gaping maw
    Of the Grand Canyon.

    Confidence is a con
    With fun-house mirrors
    That distorts health care,
    Shelter, and nourishment,
    Undermining values
    Of whatever is needed.

    Herds of cattle rumble,
    Panic, and plunge
    For safety in numbers,
    While rhinestone herders
    Burn paper money
    For the value of smoke and ash.

    The house of possession is a prison and I want out
