In the world of the wealthy pavements are plated in gold,<\/p>\n
No one intrudes into another’s space<\/p>\n
And there’s time to admire the sunflower.<\/p>\n
On the other side of the class divide, garbage heaps adorn the streets,<\/p>\n
Everyone bumps into everyone<\/p>\n
And fights with stones and nails are a sacred ritual as they struggle to maintain an equilibrium of backwardness.<\/p>\n
In that cocoon of affluence where the rich converge to dine,<\/p>\n
Wine glasses are of the most exquisite and tasteful kind.<\/p>\n
But the poor are out there in their arena of poverty jostling over the leftovers abandoned by the menacing dogs of the wealthy.<\/p>\n
In the world of the rich the code is to keep raising the equilibrium point of success.<\/p>\n
