Premises, premises…

 
A dollar-driven system
goes
 
far as a dollar
goes
 
lately the dollar
goes not so
far
 
as everybody
knows
 
*
 
Best not to
be driven
thus
 
would seem
the better way?
 
*
 

For this we know
yet never
say
 
one day will
it ALL go
bust
 

when ‘god’
is a specious
cover for –
 
“In (fulsome) Greed
We Trust”.
