Missing Link Poem by Edward Veilleux

The three of us, filled with dreams.
Filled with thoughts, how We could make it big,
if only we knew someone, had the means.
But the people who count, don't count us.
And it takes means to get to the ends.
The missing link between us and stardom,
Can all be linked to not having star-lit friends.
Being friendly with people in high places,
That is the way to get your foot in the door.
The ones who are unconnected, have no footing.
It's all about the connections, forget about having more.
So what if you have talent, you can't prove it.
You may have alot to offer, they aren't buying.
They will invest in the person they know, everytime.
We could write circles around them, without even trying...
Plenty of opportunity in this world, to be next in line.
