Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Trading in Braiding

Small biz in any time and place
Need find out the game rules to play.
Take the hair braider as a case.
First, she should untangle the way
In getting her biz pre-approved
By the powers that be about,
Whose hands and fingers are well grooved
In taking bribes from biz - no doubt.
Call it a price to do the biz.
It matters little 'tis not right.
That's just the way the system is.
It really does no good to fight.

Small entrepreneur beware.
Pols want their cut in braiding hair.
