Old School
The good old boys are back in school,
no time yet to practice the golden rule,
do it on to them, before they do it on to you,
that's the good old boys, back in school.
Time for football and mixer dances.
When the office takes up its betting pool.
Which team will win in the gladiator games?
Who will take the others to school in the pool?
Fraternities are pledging their new recruits,
with all that tradition and deep, down roots.
Self-flagellation is all part of the game,
helps with the bonding so that all are the same.
Fraternities have gathered all the old tests.
And they tutor their recruits with all the rest.
Must keep that overall grade point average high,
so that all of the members can score some pie.
For it is well known, to be connected is best.
Brothers in the business will take care of the rest.
Once you're connected to the brotherhood for real,
it's as though you had a license to steal.
So when autumn comes to Old Ivy school,
there's a new game in town for the golden rule.
Power and privilege go to the very best,
trickle-down economics for all the rest.
Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Dartmouth or Yale,
if you want to be president, from here you must hail.
And fraternity brothers are certainly a must,
because those in high places know who to trust.
Old school is dying slowly on the vine.
Like good wine turned sour, down the line.
The vices of avarice are being revealed,
and the secrets of privilege slowly repealed.

Just perused your very apt rendition of how our “system” works.
‘Tis truly a shame this truthful poem was not produced and aired
Just Before the Kavanaugh hearing on TV !!!
The public at large could have linked it immediately to his “spoiled
Childish rant” !!! He is obviously a direct product of the “Old School
Rich Mentality” !
Shades of the Illuminati ???
I remember when Bush Jr & John Kerry were campagning, besides all
the “mud-slinging” it was pointed out that Both were members of the
Secret “Skull & Bones” society of Yale.
Just yesterday, I watced a Utube video about John F Kennedy, Jr. wherein
it stated that he spent his adult life researching to find his Dad’s Killer. It
gave a brief summary about his magazine entitled “GEORGE” - and that he
believed that George H. W. Bush, the Director of the CIA at the time, was the
perpetrator of the plot !!! Very shortly after this publication, he was Killed in a
Supposed airplane “Accident” !!! Coincidence ?
Had never heard of this conspiracy theory in all these 50+ years since the
Assassination. Suggest you watch the video for more details.
Subsequently tried to link some “threads” ...
Bush - CIA - Hoover- FBI - JBJ- Pres... later Bush- Pres... later Jr Bush- Pres...
3 Texas “Oil Barons” as succeeding POTUS - coincidence ? Talk about “Good
Ole Boys” !!!
LBJ - Viet Nam War ... Bush Sr. “Desert Storm” ... Bush Jr. Afghanistan War + Iraqi
War ... Any “War-Mongering” going on here? Larger budgets for Military establishment.
Arms Manufacturers reaping Huge Profits ? Haliburton & Cheney ?
Bottom Line ? $$$ begets Power, it begets Control, Rich get Richer, various and sundry
“Brotherhoods” have Ruled the Earth ad infinitum !!!
And now # 45 has his imbecilic “Finger on the Button” !!! SCARY !
I think This Poem of yours is not only Truthful, but also Timely !
I Wish it could somehow be Splashed Across Every Form of Media
ASAP !
God Bless Ron ...
