The Rich and Poor

THE RICH AND POOR
THE RICH MAN IS AN ALCOHOLIC
THE POOR MAN IS A DRUNK
THE RICH BOY IS EMOTIONALLY ILL
THE POOR BOY IS A PUNK
A RICH WOMAN IS MENOPAUSAL
A POOR WOMAN IS CRAZY
A RICH MAN RELAXING IS TIRED
A POOR MAN RELAXING IS LAZY
SO JUDGEMENTAL WE ARE
SELF RIGHTEOUS AND WITH NO CLUE
THE BEST PERSON THAT YOU CAN BE
IS DEEP INSIDE OF YOU
HIDDEN AWAY FROM THE WORLD
TOO ADFRAID TO BE KNOWN
WE ARE SO AFRAID OF BEING ALONE ©
