National Debt Clock

National Debt Clock

New York City 

 

A crimson glow, a digital pulse

 

Against the city's ceaseless hum

 

The National Debt Clock, cold and glum

 

Counting numbers that forever lunge 🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢

 

Etching numbers into space 

 

Bound by the chains of money and capitalism

 

Wall Street, economics of money and greed 💵💵💵💰💰💰🤑🤑🤑

 

Numbers rising, a heavy tow 

 

A monument to what we owe 

 

As digits and numbers tick by on the clock 🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🕕

 

A burden past to the next generation 

 

Crushing debt and broken dreams 

 

The National Debt Clock, stark and bright

 

A chilling beacon in the fading light

 

The National Debt Clock

 

Digits and numbers that never sleep

🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢🔢

No one ever blames the Clock...

That's hilarious!

I wonder if it counts all the theft done by the Politicians and Leaderships...

We get to pay for again right?

Poor Guy...
