Arriving Guest

With dazzling sights and activities in abundance,
New arrivals are shepherd into the hotel.
Be it entertainment, food, fashion, or whatever else
The guests are lured in.
No need to pretend, act humble, or show off
You've paid your way to this hotel.
You're worthy of this attention.
All fanfare is your ego and appreciation you believe
you are owed.
Everything you receive is what you deserve.
Say thanks to yourself,
Revel in all you can take.
Gorge yourself in this experience.
Sinking in luxury till your blood turns to gold.
Hoard anything and everything, neither I or a staff member
will stop you.
Fellow guest is whom who will challenge you.
Last as long as you can and put up a good fight,
As more guests arrive.
