Three Little Numbers Poem by Ruben Tover

Gas prices draining, Con-sumer wallet.
The price you pay for Light Sweet Crude.
Doesn't seem too bad, compared,
To the European gas buying dude.

Blame it on Oil companies, Politicians too,
And the owners of the OPEC land.
Look in the mirror, there looking back,
You will see, who's the culprit Man!

Prices will go up, to pay for free delivery.
I drive a Smart Car, it can't be me!
Rolling tires will inflate
With the cost that Oil does create.

Major intersections, Three Little Numbers,
There's no debate, on reason for cost.
Pull the ATM and swipe, tear receipt.
The money? The money is Lost.
