Poverty is Destiny and It Just Can't Change

A service for those who really aren't that spoiled

Time is nothing but money,
Of importance for those now without.
The oglers and holders of value,
Sprinkling droppings and leavings about.

Collaborate quickly with credit,
Raucous and riled, Raise a crowd!
Gone but still growing like Giffen.
Too high! Make Them Pay! Get Them Out!

Kids laugh and giggle with smiles,
Making no waves on the shore.
No top-hats or monocled tyrants,
In the steak houses filled just next door.

Your coins and your tokens are mooning,
Your Lambo is waiting out back.
Don't worry, I know that he's faking,
He's got all that he needs in that pack.

I enjoyed the crisp and unfaltering language of this piece. The snapping final line was a great way to end it. Nice write.

Thanks! I appreciate the pithy review. Something along the lines of “snapping” is what I was aiming for so I’m very much warmed by your kind words.

Yes, artists do need to come together which means actually reading other people's work and leaving meaningful comments instead of the same ting every time.
