Biden

Maria Clavo 1958 (LA)



Biden

What are you hiding?

Checks almost $700.00 doubled

What's your troubles?

You know everyone can't pay

Yet you bill them the same way

Poor people will fail

Then they'll end up in jail.

Why do you act like a jerk,

And have so many people hurt?

They never had to steal before.

Now you're making them do a lot more.

That's what you promised us.

Many of us will need a bus.

I'm a senior, disabled, & by myself.

Since you took over now I'm eating on a corner store shelf.

My home was swept across the ocean &

My family is full of many emotions.

Will you arrest us if we steal

A golden cup or a fast food meal?

You knew what you were going to do.

That's why you elected Miss Harris to.

You pulled the wool over our eyes.

To our lovely life we're saying goodbye.
