So they planned a reunion <br />a gathering of friends <br />a reminiscing of the past <br />a recollection of who we <br />once were <br />wild and carefree <br />in those <br />days revolutionaries <br />burning night candles <br />immersing trembling feet on the water <br />just to keep <br />eyes waking <br />and then making most of the hay <br />on those <br />sun shining days of our lives <br /> <br /> <br />and now <br />earning money <br />more and more money <br />though <br />still honestly <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />i want to come and be a part of <br />all of you <br />rags turning to riches <br />fools becoming wise <br />poor to rich guy <br />children of the farm to <br />executives in the <br />city <br /> <br />but i finally got pissed off <br />when this reunion turns out nothing <br />but another fund raising <br />to a fraudulent scheme <br />(to a certain extend i supposed) <br /> <br />i am telling you <br />money is always suspicious <br />and big fortunes have always <br />crimes behind them <br /> <br />do not tell me that money too <br />can root out evil <br />contrary to the common belief <br />that money is the root of <br />all evil <br /> <br />shall we debate it, my friend? <br />hand me the money, so much money, and i will tell you <br />how i become changed <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I am not that kind <br />who shall bid for the highest donation <br />and then impress everyone <br />that i am making good in my present life <br />and that <br />i am paying back for all my crimes <br /> <br /> <br />P.S. <br /> <br />don't say anything <br />i am not done yet.<br /><br />RIC S.
