At What Price Money?

Half the world is starving
and look at Suri Cruise -
a four million dollar wardrobe,
and a hundred pairs of shoes.
At nearly five she has everything
and throws a tantrum if refused,
Tom and Katie you’re too foolish.
You should be ashamed of yourselves.

About This Poem

Review Request Intensity: I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back

Editing Stage: Editing - rough draft

About the Author

Region, Country: Western Australia, AUS

Favorite Poets: Favourite poets? So many, so varied. I like particular songs, not necessarily the singer... and the same goes for poetry. I can honestly say though, that Alfred Noyes' The Highwayman was what inspired my love of poetry - my mother began reading it to me when I was still a baby, and it became my favourite bedtime story

hi

Always amazes me. The ones who over indulge their children are then so shocked at how they turn out. And don't even get me started on that idiot Tom Cruise lol.............stan

Tumbling through the wardrobe

Tumbling through the wardrobe of the rich
you get the knickers caught up round your neck
Yet not, wisely, wishing a switch
And its not the you you are so what the heck?

Love to you dear judyanne
from your far away friend annanya.
