MONOPOLY
I was playing monopoly
I was the top
hat
or the car
usual strategy
usual choices
unless
I got bankrupt, somehow
ended up in jail
no strolling bucks bursting
out of pockets
through Mayfair, along
Park Lane or Pall Mall
rags to
riches
cycles of death
and rebirth
whose statue is this
newly erected in Picadilly Circus?
need more cash than this
to get me a best lawyer
who can beat
all these charges
in the
blink of an eye
win my case hands down.
