Better born lucky than rich....

Poems Like a shield.
Some sort of badge or certificate.
Distinction. With merit.
You are now the proud owner of?
Graduation from the University of life,
College of hard knocks.
"No more teachers,
No more books!"
A chance to thumb your nose at the world.
"I am considerably luckier than you, and I know it".
All the blood, sweat and tears,
all the agonising, all the time grudgingly spent.
Worth it.
The scales balanced now in your favour,
despite insurmountable odds.
So, now breathe a sigh of relief,
and sleep easy,
Let someone else come up with the goods.
