Poetic Trolley Talk
October 10, 2009 
The GUARDIAN poet laureate “Paul” has weighed in with a short take on the trolley issue.
Sixty million for a downtown trolley
The mayor says “Yes, by golly!”
He’s on the wrong track
As a matter of fact
It will become known as Bieter’s Folly!

The mayor seems to be enamored with both large and small rail travel varieties, I tried to cover both….
We don’t need that Amtrak crack
Is that not an obvious fact?
No one wants refurbished rail
Why resurrect an obsolete trail?
We don’t need your crony car
Why would I hitch from bar to bar?
No one wants steel in de street
Who is this mayor who seeks defeat?

Sixty million…
Per project or per mile?
City leaders in denial
Business owners feel defiled.
Stimulus, spendulous, taxation!
Old cronies are circling:
$90 thousand on the docket.
“More funding for my pocket,
and for campaign contributions.”
