INTELLECTUAL AND OTHER PROPERTY
after Edgar Allen Poe
Don't ever sign up to be a silent partner
Feeding your lines to the piranha
Thinking by such noble sacrifice
A crown in heaven to win, compassion to show.
Heaven laments your being scammed. Conned,
Fleeced, overlooked coopted hijacked certainly betrayed
and doublecrossed or just that you feel so lost
There are many phrases for it
and many phases of it
In the end you wonder beset by ravens
the pernicious glow of El Dorado
What to do about
Your purloined heart sold for
A pennysworth on the open market.
