Bureaucracy is old

I am suit and tie
The fruit of the most suitable of lies

Listen mister
I'm not going away until I'm dead and cold
Greedy gluttony is needy
And bureaucracy is old

sometimes not even death keeps them away. the lies are spun and catching more.

the first line had me tilting my head slightly, wondering where this was going. six lines say a lot here. it's all good.

a poetic response:

bureaucracy is old
my fruit's not very cold
in fact, it's growing mold
the day that it was sold

forget it, i'll just fold
and do what i am told
and thus avoid the scolding shriek
of suitable fruitable inscrutable
bur-eau-cra-cy

i like it :)
