Quotes about tarp

I have newspapers coming to me and saying, 'Can we get in on the TARP?'.

People forget... that we structured it so that the government, or the people, would be repaid with a really good rate of return. And as it turns out, that aspect of TARP, that's what happened.

The government wants to control the banks, just as it now controls GM and Chrysler, and will surely control the health industry in the not-too-distant future. Keeping them TARP-stuffed is the key to control.

When you stop and look at so much of the kind of activism that has been triggered, the Tea Party and the like, as a result of Obama's efforts - TARP, the stimulus package, and now the health care reform - there is a lot of sense this government is changing.

Only Metaphors

A hidden self portrait
in a tar pit
I do not want to explore further.

Wind was making a big sound
the tarp blowing off,
I stand naked under the scortching sun.

A classless pain rises fiercely
I am careless about my height
amdist tall peaks.

Hypodermic, my little dachshund
holds the time in small paws
and plays with my stasis.

I loose my taste of salt on lips
charting between the tears
of infant fears.

Red Rose Destitute Prostitute

Rose has the reddest hair I've seen...
Rose is a prostitute of high repute....
Rose smiles and all your thorns fall off
along with your shoes..............................
Rose and I get along real swell not like
you think....
Rose lives on the streets as well...being as
she is actually she has as many as tree
or four homes a day.
Rose did not show up for her doctors appointment.....
Rose was found in an empty lot with her bush
lopped off.
Rose was destitute when found she was sent off on
what we call the gravy train to every where
rose was cremated under tarp then bailed out.

The Real Work Begins

I enjoy the irony of not being taken out to dinner,
For writing bad poetry, and getting
Away with it: And when the leggy substitute drops
Like a bombshell into the room, to watch movies
For the rest of the period,
And notice the canopy of her interior skeleton
Heave like a buxomy pink tarp as she sits at
The head of the class, inhaling, flickering her temporary
Eyes over the rows of boys.
They lick their lips like suburban wolves as she
Crosses her legs and her long-distance calves
Flex: She exhales and it smells like rum, from
What the pirates have done to her:
I don’t care, I still want her, and contemplate
Asking her to prom, or abducting her on the way
Out to her car, and thank god this isn’t math, or
I wouldn’t know what to do; but now I have a plan,
And I doodle a map on the desk, which spills like
A silkworm’s womb onto my hand, a pubescent jig-saw
The Mexican lady will wipe clean over night,

In Tents

In Waltham, on a Soccer field

A city of pink tents was pitched.

A neighborhood with real thin walls

Some chat, some snore, some mainly itched.

In the distance, thunder rumbled.

Streaks of lightening split the sky

Soon, I knew, the rain would come here.

We must find shelter, you and I.

Is This Death?

Darkness deep from which you come
the harvest of my works thus sown
Pain, agony, suffering, Glorifying Worth
Such is the way with this war's birth

A covering tarp can not sheild from the torrent flood
Every dropp was like a rain of spears
The fires of the battlefield cover our world
Virgining power erupts to chaos, power spreads to another

Consumed by flame, holocaust explodes
Within the eye's fury, the battle draws our lust
A burning rage engulfs, The Sword's thrust for blood

I stand grasping this creaton, my weapon growing strong
After His rise I shall return but for now I sit brooding
The counter strike thus unnecary the return has come
My strength has gathered I fight again, have fully rallied my men.

'What happened? ' I gaze around

The Boomer's Lament (A Country Western Song)

By the order of the Marshall
We don't live here any more
Our stuff is on the lawn
and there's a padlock on our door.
Then, while I was distracted,
reading the decree
Thieves made off with my HDTV

I once worked as a loan officer
at Mega Billions bank
We made some bad decisions
as the staff and assets shrank.
I was escorted from my desk
the day I got the shank-
My Boss made bonus- he has
TARP to thank.

By the order of the Marshall
We don't live here any more
Our stuff is on the lawn
