FILTHY RICH

 

Life can really be

An awful bitch

Which is why, on balance

I would prefer to be rich

There are some people

Those lucky dogs and bitches

Who though little effort

Amass immense riches

In numbered accounts

Their balances healthy

And they find themselves

So incredibly wealthy

That they lose all respect

For simple humanity

And that's the kind of rich

That I want to be.

OPULENCE

 

He was opulence itself

With his lavish display

Of wealth and affluence

By means quite ample,

His riches clearly abundant

To put it another way

And to use the vernacular

He was totally Minted
