THE BIG TIME

The Life...or is IT

The Big Time

Everything attainable…
In ones eye…
The high profile…
Money long like a country mile…
And unforgettable Billion dollar…
Smile…
This is what’s so sought after…
No more morning afters….
Just continual days…
Eyes hidden behind dark shades…
That sting from…
The light & purity of the suns yellow rays…
Blinage just Sparkling…
Frosty and Frozen necks…
Pole dancing chicks get rich…
… with the flick of a heavily jeweled wrist
Raining down 10,000 ones…
… just for fun
…And the privilege to hear them say “He is that ONE”
Paparazzi…
Snappin shots….
Glare from the lights scream…
I made it to the top…
Never hear the word regret…
So the masses tip laced champagne glasses…
To all of the so called success…
Poppin bottles…
As arsenic filled bubbles make the lies…
…easier to digest
Living the world of the high life…
Moves directed like a video shoot…
Make believed richness…
Really somebody else's loot…
Pull the screen and stop the camera…
…reveal the vile & evil master
The dictator of What IS…
Commercialized…
Money Making…
This is how the Big Time Live…
Take a beauty and chew her up…
A young man scatters seeds all over
…who cares as long as their the chosen
Oh, and it seems to look like it’s all good…
Since life is so depressing in the hood…
All comes with a price to pay…
…Until that High Life…
…The Big Time Sign…
…Burns…
…OUT…
And you’re forgotten and replaced…
By younger…
…prettier …
...sexier…
…and faster…
…In this…

…BIG TIME RACE…

There is more to life than money, but it does take money to make life easier to pursue the better things in life. As long as the bills are getting paid then live it up! Well written poem I enjoyed it

We always want more. Hard to know happiness when the hunger increase and we want more. I like the way you wrote the poem. Fast pace and direct. Strong ending to a outstanding poem.

I Love your style...I deeply enjoyed your poem...I love the vernacular of American language, throughout the country, the colloquialism, which is common thread from state to state, the slight differences and similarities...and your words shined through, like a diamond in a rough.
