Selfish Money Tree

I call this 
                       my starting point
               but there's where I wanna be 
                       over by the yatch 
              and in between that money tree
                  don't you make fun of me
                because our feelings; mutual
                       denial for too long
               you won't have controll at all
               let's chop it down together
                     i call the branches
                   you can have the roots 
        because they have life's worthless answers
                        and the wood 
                        we can process
                 into posters and paperback
                       ..and the leaves
                          I will spend, 
                                 way
                                 too 
                                 fast.
