YET ANOTHER BITTER PILL
Dead Bull In The Mud
Greedy Strange Knife In The Hand
All In The Aim Of Getting The Chunky Part Of It!
Lying Down Heavily In The Mud With
The Source Of Its Death In Its Shadows!
The House On The Rock Of Wealth Is Found,
Didn't Even Care About How It Came About
It Was Earned Though But Often More Than Not
It Surfaces Only The Sunny Side Of It!
All To Be Seen Is Today
Forgetting Yesterday, The Past,
The Real Days With Real Events
Even Tomorrow To Come That Is Scary
In Its Certainty Is In Its Shadows In The Shady Heart!
Never Too Late To Face The Reality
(Tomorrow To Come)
Wealthy Homes Are Often Not Healthy Homes
For It's Often Shady! Or Has It Vanished Into The Thin Air That
All That Glitters Has Always Refused To Be Gold?
Oh Don’t Grab The Wrong Side Of This As Though
There Are Some Wealthy Homes With Healthy Background
It Happens To Be One In A Million
But Sometimes Happiness Is In Its Shadows
Their Roots Are Often Weakened By The Source,
How Ever, No One Has It All. So To Now Say…
Happiness And Wealth Are Mostly Not Compatible!
This Is Yet Another Bitter Pill As I, Only Splash Muddy Water
With My Whip Of Thought Who Ever It Touches, It Is Left For, To Lick
The Wound And Remove The Skeleton From His Closet!
