Pity The Poor
Health Insurer

Pity those who health care insure,
Their profits have gone through the floor,
Covering people they’d rather ignore,
Pity those who health care insure.

Woe for this beacon of free enterprise,
Who year after year for weak earnings must strive,
If only the sick ones did not stay alive,
Things would be easy, insurers would thrive,
Pity the poor health insurer.

Their coverage list, they’d sure like to weed it,
To drop all the hurt and the sick folks who bleed it,
Those greedy health needs, they must constantly feed it,
Just because some bureaucrats went and decreed it,
Pity the poor health insurer.
