Pure, but Poor

   Ah, she’s pure -- but poor
    Oy, she’s poor -- but pure

   What difference does it really make
    If pure you like, then poor you’ll take

No matter how twisted and texted we are we should still stand for what we are and what we believe in. I don't believe in suffering on earth and enjoying in heaven though. A good name is better than riches but I always pray that poor pure people are always blessed.
