Don't let others lead you. They may be
blind or, worse, vultures. ~ Rumi
Life was grand
but you know how it is
there was never enough
it has been said
he who dies with the most toys
wins
as much as he had
there was still more
and he just had to have it all
he had run out of options
could not find a way on his own
to increase his hoard
one day he received a call
the voice on the other end of the line
had a proposal
FINALLY he thought
a way to have it all
with no sweat of the brow
he gathered together all he could
mortgaged his home
made the investment
he never heard that voice again
one was blind
the other a vulture
