Fishing in my mind
With an ivory hook
For the words
And the reasons
In a passage from the Book.
Wishing in my mind
For just a second look
From my God
Or an angel
Or an unseen rook.
Lurking in my mind
In a corner or a nook
Are my passions
And my fears
And the dreams that you took.

Part of the gross national debt includes the
entire $1.5 trillion Social Security Trust Fund, all of which has been
borrowed and spent. Since the early 1980s, U.S. taxpayers have been paying extra
FICA taxes to build up a surplus that will have over $3.5
trillion by 2012 and an even higher amount in its peak year of 2017. But this surplus has
been loaned to the General Fund of the federal government for other
uses, contributing even further to the national debt. (more) |
