Over the past few years,
We have realized capital gains.
We are eachothers blue print,
Which is one reason why,
We’re unwilling to make any cuts.
Year in and year out,
Bonuses and options are cashed in
But they are a short run thing.
We harbor no illusions about
The longer term consequences.
At the moment,
It’s not difficuly to imagine
How particularly happy I am.
I have endorsed $ 25 million,
And am ready to endorse another $ 30 million.
