Imagine lender fails to fund draw

Imagine in a fix n flip,

Lender fails to fund draw

Saying they have internal problems.

What would happen?

If you promised contractors

You'd pay them after lender pays you.

Would they wait for lender to pay you?

__________________________________

Imagine disgruntled contractors

Fuming with justified rage 'cause

They can't meet their obligations.

Can they be patient and wait?

Or beat you up to settle scores.

Will they just destroy what they built?

Leaving your flip a mess?

___________________________

Imagine the borrower

A square peg in a round hole?

An idiot in the main?

Who believed in a system

That threw them under the bus?

They borrow 'cause they ain't gat lots

Use their little to make ends meet

____________________________

Imagine the lender

A towering giant with unlimited might

Ruthless at choking defaulting borrowers

Punish late interest with penalties

Choke struggling borrowers with foreclosure

Staining FICO for seven long years

Whatcha finna do if lender defaults funding draws?

________________________________________

Imagine the greed and abuse!

The borrower is slave to lender

Proverbs 22 verse 7 says.

Oh! How good 'tis to be a lender!

That you can't be held accountable

By your borrower, a pawn

In a big game of greed and manipulation?

____________________________________

Imagine the untouchable

Is might right? 

Is justice defined by the powerful

In Capitalist economy?

If borrower is slave to lender

What is the contractor

Who works under the borrower?

________________________________

Imagine the contractors

Who use their skills to build

Endure harsh weather working hard.

Just stupid blue-collar workers

Who deserve nothing more than

Crumbs that fall from the table

Of the rich and mighty?

________________________________

Imagine the American dream

All riddled by greed and selfishness.

Building generational wealth

While asleep or at the beach

By taking advantage of the weak

And vulnerable of society.

A blessing or curse?
