Perhaps he pretty much was a slouch

Obviously because he never left his couch

Under that gut he had quite the brain I can avouch

Could be churlish and his taste quite louche

He made his money from selling his indoor poncho with a built in …

Go big or go home they always say

It made Stacie feel weird to be looking down at those around her

Admittedly most of her life she had been on the opposite end of that

Needing a stepstool to be eye to eye with their kneecaps

The fact she now stood on a mountain of money, well it made the view that much richer

Hype Machine (an acrostic poem)

 

How much would you pay for this?

You might think it would be hundreds of dollars

Perhaps even thousands

Everything is just $19.95 with a separate processing and handling fee

 

Make those phones ring now and we will double your order

And just pay a separate shipping fee

Credit cards and money orders are okay

However, just give us a direct line into your bank account

Now if you do that, we will pay the tax

It will change your life in ways you can’t imagine

Everyone call now.  Our operators are standing by

Spa (an acrostic poem)

 

So you feel run down and empty?

Pampering can replenish the old fuel tank

All you need is time and money

Bill (an acrostic poem)

But he didn’t have the money to pay

It made him feel really bad, but he had been so hungry

Leaving the slip on the table with an “I’m sorry” note

Larry couldn’t really enjoy his first meal in three days as he ran away

Broke (an acrostic poem)

Being poor made things easy for Chris

Really there were no money decisions

Of course, it also meant at times he had to go hungry

Keeping him always a bit on edge

Even then, it made life simpler, and poor Chris was a simple man.

Deftly (an acrostic poem)

Dexterously Susan picked the lock on Brad’s safe

Easing out the jewels and money, she finally located the flash drive

Fitting it her reader she soon had everything copied

Then she encrypted the originals and put everything back as it was

Yielding herself a small smile, she wandered back to the party.  She deserved that drink

Glib (an acrostic poem)

Guaranteed to work or your money back

Look I know you don’t really need something like that right now

I think you should see of it as an investment in your future

Because yes I will even send you a second one, just pay separate shipping and handling

Fortune (an acrostic poem)

Feeling lucky I placed everything on double zero

Oblivious to the gasps at the table, I sat back contented

Reaching for the roulette wheel, the croupier set it spinning

The ball was sent orbiting in the opposite direction

Under my breath I started to pray

Needless to say I cursed when it landed on red 32

Everyone felt sorry for me, but I didn’t care.  I had stolen that money

Cost (an acrostic poem)

Certainly Cora preferred free software

Outside of viruses and malware that is

Still she wondered how they made money on it

Till she realized if it was free then she was the product
