Palm Architecture


Aloha poets,
     Tropical architecture inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!

Double Down

Income percentage outgoes as thing called tax
Incoming codes reap product on their backs
Ireland flips into a new reversal of growth
The next flip mexico or poland or both?

Distill the state down to it's purest form
Drop names settle a score feel the swarm
To be a politician academia full-on career
Experience real life or fall into the foggy fear?

Solve it all by just being the fatherly and go figure
Woman, man, whatever trips the "know best" trigger
Political attire dress up to dress down corporate worlds
Invitation to pay for care as if a date of boys or girls

Those really the folks who pay their taxes twice?
Add s. korea and u.s. to this list of rolling dice
Little multinational business pays both ways 
Welcome yourself back old wild west days                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Accusations of corporate greed, class envy
Populist motions amidst fat cats now plenty
Robber or baron to offshore cash rich overseas
Pay dividends to investors back home if you please

And what about all those workers and all those wages
On sovereign soil as a homegrown baby boom ages
Capital invest needs to see its  inventory restock
Cash rich grows overseas back home shock

Offshore goes with computers drug makers
Repurchase shares with debt any and all takers
Algorithms with pills and gadgets on tropical island
Overseas profits mount on repatriated highland

Interested conglomerates in hotels and health
Factory or research facility for more wealth
Redistribution awash oceanic cash exotic
In style of the local, island profits erotic
