Can’t Make No Money
Gil Scott-Heron
a poet who made the first rap record
said the problem with peace
is that there was no money
to be made in it.
It should not be surprising that
a man with overarching desire
continued to make false claims
about a stolen election
while asking his supporters
for money to contest the results.
Thus an orderly transition of power
the very bedrock of our democracy
was sold to the tune of $250 million
by a rank charlatan and swindler.
