Clouds Laughed

More of this, more of that Fifty dogs, a hundred cats Never satisfied, never enough A card sharp, called million-dollar bluffs Porsches, Ferraris, Lamborghinis galore Never enough, needed far more Penthouse in Manhattan, two in L.A. Resorts in Palm Springs and Montego Bay Trumped the tallest towers Built a castle reached the sky Clouds laughed, then raced to form a simple question ~ W H Y?

How has he got away with his crimes for so long? And when will he be charged for all the crimes he has committed? Why isn't he in prison? If why is a simple question, how much longer do we have to wait for an answer.?
