why rich man 

look down

from your tower

so high in the sky

watching

planes fly

while what appear

to be ants

stir down below

heart grows weary

loins grow cold 

mines seer

help none

you can't take a

penthouse to heaven.

Lousa A Dobbins

(c)2010

Money doesn't buy happiness
And happiness gets its own cut
As far as taking a penthouse to heaven
Well you'd have to ask ole King Tut

Indeed. The measure of a man is his wealth. I notice such men as Trump are treated like royalty just because of a bank balance.
If a man was measured by his heart... But this is a crazy world.
