Tom Paine -- the game

Tom Paine -- the game

Let's play Tom Paine,
restored again!
What would he say
alive today?
I'm Tom Paine II
and so are you.

An Ode to Soap

Wall Street’s bigger better bubbles
Long and lightly lift the Troubles.
Why blame Wall Street when they burst
Compounded on the poor accurst?

Christendom in gold kept glowing,
Short the night and long the blowing.
Better let a bigger bubble
Better bear more trying Trouble.

ab Usura

Usura long lay 'gainst the law
until nine numbskulls said "no more."
To loan sharks bail spelt out of jail
before it spelt bank fraud can't fail.

Usura now so lies with law
you can't tell which one is the whore.
Usura I shall chase again,
your humble servant, Thomas Paine.
