Sour-Graping Baloney?

The fabulously rich and famous man

is indeed a really admirable somebody;



          but if he's not a "we" in the affectionate

          circle of anybody, he's a lonesome nobody;


          if he belongs not to the "us" in the friendly

          heart of someone, he's a solitary no one;


          some may say this point of view is passe,

          just a lot of loser's sour-graping baloney;



                  but without true loves and real  friends, verily,

                  one is poor if his only wealth is much money !
