I was born poor uneducated trailer trash; <br />worked myself up by my own efforts; <br />now I'm rich; but still inside, feel poor... <br /> <br />so last week, I celebrated wealth - <br />bought my first $20,000 Cartier watch... <br /> <br />now everyone who sees it, laughs... <br />I wonder why?<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-sad-tale-of-consumerism/
