Rich an Poor Poem

I have been rich
I have been poor
Rich is better

You cannot say all rich
Because I have been generous rich
I have also been selfish rich

You cannot say all poor
Because I have been angry poor
Also grateful poor

Rich and poor
Two circumstances that counterbalance themselves
I have been rich, I have been poor
Rich is better
