the story of a greedy chairman who meets his fate
One of The Many Men Who Was Ruined By The Vampire With Acne

This towering glass parasite will suck the cash.
The Chairman counts what is fed to him
While his soul rots like dead skin.
Corruption was always his virtue,
And Greed was never his vice.

Forced out through the window,
Like a pimple on the building’s face.
This building has a bad case of acne.
The impurity plummets to the sidewalk.
His dollar bills didn’t soften the fall.
Don’t worry, replacements come easy.

White and red ambulances swoop in like angels,
But angels with wings made of green bills
Pick him up and take him first.
The Chairman opens his eyes to find the glass tower
With seven story fangs.
