Money Money No Money No

 Money money no money money no

Money money no money money no;

can't buy me love

can't get me out of town

I accept it the way I would accept a looming typhoon

or surgery

Everybody out of the dating pool!

It's the broke guy.

97% of the women vanish

The other 3 ignore me.

I may have no coin in this realm

My charming emanations worthless

in your world of things

But I didn't get into this whole

poetry writing story telling thing

for the money.

That'd just be crazy

Sure, I hear the echo of wolf-steps

in the background any time

If I listen too much my priorities get discombobulated.

Distracted from the much more important business

of my creative and spiritual works in progress.

That and a million dollars would make me virtually

irresistable.
