Read me the story
Read to me slowly,
at an elegant pace
befitting my elegant pose
(notice how magnificently
my hands are placed)
I've always wanted
to be wealthy
to have someone learned
read to me
It's like going to the concert
or the opera:
others perform,
one just watches or listens;
It is too much effort to master
and besides, there's the question of talent
and so let the learned read aloud
while the wealthy incline and
allow words to be background:
it's worth the fee, when you have the money
