Pride From Jeweled Shoulders
Life in majestic existence, void of needing hope
hanging it as a suspension is beyond any rope.
On fortune’s bed, satisfaction gets laid
showing off an obese personality which is incredibly made.
Possessions comfort the mind away from any fear
no experience of a sting not even a tear.
Everyone believes this, from the written public book
challenges in wide margins, suffering alone in the brook.
Gold plated is the appearance of the pot
absorbing great heat, its inner self stays hot.
Between affluence and insanity is a very short cord
by buying small planets to show off what one can afford.
Expenses beyond imagination, a style not meaningful
overworking the bank machines and not even careful.
Private commercial flying birds already counting at four
excellent in state and well maintained but wanting more.
For a newly opened pizzeria in Hungary, traveling to curiously discover
then branching to France and Germany to freshen up and recover.
Forgetting that someone somewhere needs a small plate of rice
and doing this to thousands for him is nowhere near a sacrifice.
