Active billionaires 

We get tired of his face, which is a mirror
into his soul shows an obsession with self
has drowned his tender heart was 
in agreement with the world around him
it is about power, the dislikeable want
to be loved, to show strength is second
best to be feared when love fails 
overactive and exhaustive, he bothers
 about things that are unimportant for
for us, but of vital interest his one road 
self-centered intelligence, to be liked he
has to feign compassion for those he sees
as a loser and secretly despises
in silent moments, he senses his loss, 
but feels defeated til the  engine of his busy
life revs up, and he can throw himself into
the clamor of a life that is a mere echo of
the loss he has suffered.
