money

there is an arrogance

that comes

with money.

real money, generational money.

it frees

you from looking

at the price

of nearly everything.

the rich are different.

not better,

not wiser necessarily,

but different.

having f you money

dissipates

the fear and nonsense

of what the world

puts upon you.

it frees you of your color,

your faith,

your age,

your gender.

money will give you 

all the things the poor

desire,

even friends.

with money you'll be

forgiven,

with money you'll

make amends.
