Riches

January 5, 2007

Poetry

Going by

In cars out of a dream

Unaware of their poverty

Poor

Broken

Lost

Ignorant

Climbing ladders to nowhere

 

I am wealthy

Rich

Living a lavish life

They have no idea

 

Another flight

Gone again today

Left behind his home

No worry they have enough

Toys

Cars

A maid

Classes

Everything they need

Except him

 

I am wealthy

Rich

Living a lavish life

I see clearly

 

Simple, full of us

Love thick like fog

Fills the air

No leather seats

No maid

Wealth of unimaginable degrees

We’ve got everything

Riches and riches

 

I am wealthy

Rich

Living a lavish life

I want them to see
