Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Pay for Pal

As a taxpayer, I am tired
Of paying military bills
Where the U.S. has not been hired
By other nations for its skills.
It's time for all so called allies
To pay more money for defense.
It's time the rest of the world buys
For cash in bargained recompense,
The stuff the U.S. top brass think
Is needed beyond U.S. shores.
Then military wares that stink
Will not be wasted in the wars.

Pay up or shut up world - here's why,
The U.S. cash cow is milked dry.
