A Poem by charlie


In Bayonne, France, James Goodfellow was born.

He grew up fast, became a shop keeper, and had a son who took bribes from a glazier.


Junior found the glazier's bribes so convenient, why, there wasn’t a month went by where his father’s shop didn’t endure another broken window...

Naughty boy...
What indeed would become of the 'glaziers,' if no-one ever broke windows, then again, such a superficial observation takes no account of that which is not seen, except on reflection. :)

Four lines of absolute and insightful brilliance.


Beccy.

I did have Bastiat in mind, but Elton John will do. Why not? It is 2015, afterall.
