Number the days until you find release,
Ask the warden why the revolving door
Motions the criminals back to prison,
Eager to return to the yard, to cease
Looking forward to life outside of jail,
Exactly why they rob a twenty-four
Seven convenience store, and kill the son
Soon becomes apparent, death or glory.
No one will ever solve this riddle: Why bail
Out the bankers from financial mistakes,
But continue to burden tax payers,
Over the need to feed the grand jury,
Deliver the wealthy their big tax breaks,
Yet never indulge indigents their prayers?
