Best Upper Middle Class Poems

The girl is an ultra-modern scholar, 
Belongs with an upper-middle class family. 
Looking very nice, smart, gets angry suddenly. 
She reads M.A in English at Presidency University. 
She is assimilating to the ideas of Shakespeare, 
Shelley, Keats, Neruda, Byron...
Fluently speaks English, loves cricket. 
Shoulders are...

There is something to be said for the upper middle boy who fails.
You know the one 
Going through his twenties 
Supported by his parents

but...

the Bus – Travels Through America’s Underbelly

I am a bus rider
That makes me unusual
For a white male 
From an upper middle class family

Our people are not bus riders
Though some are subway riders

Bus riders are other people
The poor, minorities, immigrants
People who don’t drive
Because they are blind

A place where the schoolgirls were tantalisingly innocent and the men were
Increasingly unbecoming

The sidewalks gleamed and the church bells rang
The winters snowed and the summer birds cooed in unison

to be the CEO...

downstairs I can watch
ANCIENT ALIENS!!!!!

A demon always able to make us all despise
An angel preaching cures that didn’t tell us why
But the people standing clueless could only ever cry

A mountain overshadowing the endless night
A sun that sits behind and begs to be...

You grew up knowing you would work,
for your dream job you made a search,
then went to school and took the tests,
burned the oil to be the best.

You interned for experience,
and developed good business sense,
got a good job with a big firm,
then through toil you quickly...
