A class people

The A, class people 

there had been a mass outbreak, thefts from the store 
selling fairy tales, honestly, it had nothing to do with me 
It was not me who wrote, if you love a tree, it will uproot
settle outside your living room, you can admire it daily
the tree, if an oak grows taller and taller blocking your street view, and the house will be permanently in the shade and your electricity bills horrendous. 
An olive tree upon hearing the love call of one in love with the fauna, came and settled in the middle of the road outside, blocking the traffic of trucks full of muck
Do something, they hollered!
I closed my eyes hard and saw the galaxy blinking 
stars, colored light of rockets flying from planets trying 
to sell an invention made by a Mars man who moved 
to earth “inventing” what had been invented on Jupiter by a man called Tesler, not tolerating the earth's diet he had
in the middle of the night, flown back to Jupiter
the man from Mars is into rockets (naturally) and electric cars, he also not of the goodness of his heart, helps people to invest in his projects
It is simple, you give him $1000.00 he invests the money 
on your behalf and six months later you will receive 2000$.
all this is tempting but since the gigantic pyramid case
in Romania, I have cold feet.
This has nothing to do with the love of trees
so much so, that the princess worrying about the state of her father's kingdom, can't sleep at night despite sleeping on top of seven mattresses and a duvet made of spun, white 
clouds – we have been informed the duvet can also be brown
The princess fell off her mattress but we were on guard she was saved, apparently she had been dreaming of a Roma-looking stable boy.
No, she didn't tell us about the dream, but we could guess.
A Chinese proverb has it, that if you save a person's life you are personable and responsible for that person's life
That is the way it is, we are stuck with rich people and royals because we are forelock-touching fools
