The economy is booming

  The laughter is deafening

  The poor get poorer

  The rich get richer

  The shadow of a depression

  Is used as shade by the untaught

  The world moves on the opinions of the untaught

  They could never imagine the world was poorer

  Cries of the drunks are deafening

  Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

  The cars pipes are booming

  And yet culture richer

  And the skies gray hue is full of depression

  The world seems to pursue a depression

  And the cannons prepare to start booming

  Soldier drafted from the untaught

  Collected from those made poorer

  Their screams deafening

  But blocked by the money of those made richer

  Prohibition made them richer

  Uplifting the rising depression

  The bands notes are booming

  Yet the dichotomy of silence in the slums is deafening

  Even the rich are untaught

  For their drive is worse than others, poorer

  Politicians policies get poorer and poorer

  Filling their pockets to get richer

  Driving even further the depression

  Rules are left untaught

  The gavel sentenced them to burden with booming

  The clang of coins to the poor is an experience akin to deafening

  Actions are deafening

  Lesson left untaught

  Others made richer

  Cities dirty and full of depression

  The working man made poorer

  Who thought the american dream would pop, booming

  Whether you've been made richer or poorer

  And depression in your mind is booming

  The deafening advice of others ignored forming the untaught
