Foolish Man's Plight
Spending money on a worthless doodad
Caught his eye like a red-blinking light,
Reminded him of something he never had
Spending money on a worthless doodad.
Later, buyer’s remorse made him feel bad
Too late, he realized a foolish man’s plight,
Spending money on a worthless doodad
Caught his eye like a red-blinking light.
Too late, he realized a foolish man’s plight
It’s money burning a hole in his pocket,
Impulsive spending without foresight
Too late, he realized a foolish man’s plight.
Stupid behavior often comes back to bite
Driving his car, for example, like a rocket,
Too late, he realized a foolish man’s plight
It’s money burning a hole in his pocket.
(Interlocking Triolet)
