We The Nothing
We the nothing make our febrile donations to the noble causes
not receiving any notable media recognition pauses
Our dollars and euros fall into the bottomless charitable pit
but those charitable foundations governed by the “foundation board of directors” kneel in front of the capitalist big buck…Branson…Musk…crypto kings..entertainment idols (not fleeced by their accountants)
For the little guys like you and I they treat us no better than annoying flies
instead a wing of a hospital is named after the bulging wallet friends of those charitable vertical mosaic souls on the foundation board!
the monied touted in every situation
having that wing named after the big families shelling out the cash
and what about a wing of the hospital named after the penniless chumps like you and me?
We count for nothing in the big scheme
but when the charitable begging comes again all we get is a smiley meme asking for more and paying blackmail rates at hospital parking lots “with gracious thanks to pay for research costs”
Not good being treated like meaningless turds
laughing when the hospital cardiologists warns about eating too many poutine cheese curds
and the accounting nerds
beg and shout we need more and more
what are foundations nothing but a heat seeking bed sore!
