BROOKSLEY BORN POEM
There once was a woman
Brooksley Born was her name
Protecting the PEOPLE
Was the name of her game.
She went against Greenspan & Summers
Many others, it's true
She was 'serving the people'
Unlike so many will do.
This country is corrupt
It has been so for years
The corrupt keep defrauding
Leaving the honest in tears.
We'd wake-up every day
Go to work in the morning
Brooksley Born saw it coming
She was sounding 'The Warning'
Now our country's collapsing
We hear cries, shouts & moans
Credit default swaps & derivatives
And destructive home loans.
Guess this poem is over
She didn't work for the 'pay'
She worked for the American PEOPLE
Who live in this land- USA.
End.
Don't forget to 'Google' this- THE WARNING: FRONTLINE PBS, and watch it on the web.
Thank You.
