No one is rich whose expenditures exceed his means, and no one is poor whose incomings exceed his outgoings.

Do surgery
A business is worthless
If costs exceed sales.
So is the life one pursues.
If woes exceed peace.
It needs surgery.

The Grass Is Not Always Greener
The grass is not always greener on the other side
Just like everything- it will die.
It will wither and fade- nothing ever stays the same.
We must accept what we now have
And strive for something more
or make it an unfulfilled dream
That will crash against the shore.
We all have burdens that we must bare
So stick with family and friends who really care.
Keep a positive outlook on life
and everything will turn out right.
The rich and famous have their problems too
And like us, they don’t know what to do.
They get every thing that wealth can buy
Then strive like hell to survive.
Mortgages and homes that they can’t
Afford to keep.
Then sit in their brand name chairs
And begin to weep.
We exceed our incomes by the thousands
While they exceed theirs by the millions.
Who has more to lose? Which one would you choose?
So when they tell you the grass
is greener on the other side.
MAYBE JUST MAYBE-IT’S A LIE

The age factor means nothing to me. I'm old enough to know my limitations and I'm young enough to exceed them.
Sonnet- Help me God
0 Lord, help me in my present crusade,
Against the tyrannies of injustice;
Everywhere, 'tis the Evil-cavalcade,
That threatens the weak framework of justice.
I shall not slumber until I succeed,
To wake up the hearts of ignorant poor;
In my efforts, may be, I must exceed,
To try all methods, and knock every door.
This lovely earth has but gone to Dogs;
The Righteous men bear the brunt of torture;
The Rich turn richer, eat worser than hogs;
For the downtrodden poor, where's the future?
Help me, O Lord, to wade across rough seas,
Let this World turn better or forthwith cease.

Muslim-?
What a metaphor
Allah created
When the world needed
A real revolution
Of Love
Art
Truth
Justice
And
Human Dignity
Blessed You were
With the compassion and devotion
Of truthful and accomplished Prophetism
Today
What have You done
To Yourself-?
Hatred
Intolerance
Hypocrisy
Subject ive Divinity
Delusional Grandiosity
And
Suicide Bombing
Whom You want to kill
Your fellow human
Or
Your own-self-?

We have two American flags always: one for the rich and one for the poor. When the rich fly it means that things are under control; when the poor fly it means danger, revolution, anarchy.

Rich and Poor
In me a sense has felt like each,
One causes others to wonder of strange beliefs,
In a feeding are the poor,
Poor are the opposite of the Rich.
In this side of the valley,
The Rich are better at living,
In opposition to the laughter
Of the Poor.
Poor is not Rich,
And Rich carries no Wealth
Of Heavenly Times.

Ego-centric Growth
Writers outnumber readers.
Speakers exceed listeners.
Leaders run after followers.
Thanks to ego-centric growth.
