Poor George

Poor George had got wrinkles

And was drawn and quartered

He fared better than Abe the Martyr

He died by hundredths

And was feed to dogs 

Or thrown away.

Dead Money

I had some dollars
stashed away
I went to get it out
the other day.

I found what they buy
was half as much
than when I put
it in the back.
.
I have some quarters
I want to change to dollars
but spending makes them martyrs
hanging by their collars.
