Poems ✍️

</>'Please sir, can I have a bit more? '
For there's more in the company store
And I need it to ensure
That my citizen's wellfare is secure'
(To paraphrase Tiny Tim.)

'A tranche here,
A tranche there,
Pretty soon it's real money'
That's never a-plenty.
(To paraphrase Senator Everett Dirksen.)

'A spoonful of Euros
Makes the medicine go down.'
For those
Who live the life style
Of the Bourgeoisie.
(To paraphrase Mary Poppins)


Tranche, a term used to disguise
The disgust amongst the wise
As the French look down their nose
At those inferior ones below.
