Allergic To Money Poem by Damion Hamilton

Allergic To Money

Rating: 5.0


It won't come to me


no matter how much I try


Maybe I am intelligent or



have deep thoughts


thoughts that a lot of people do not have


yet,


money seems allergic to me


Lol.


I try to figure that thing out


but it will not come to me,


it's as difficult as the most advanced math to me


those dollars or wealth or whatever you call it


and for some people


it all seems to come so easy


they know what people want


they have common sense


something I do not have admittedly


or maybe I'm lazy and don't want to hustle







Hustling something the masses have put on pedestal


but on your death dead will wish you have spent more time hustling and making money, when perhaps you have your final curtain?


I don't know man.


I'm not into what most people are into


I don't feel a connection to them


and just maybe I am wrong for that


but can this be helped?

Damion, this is terrific. There is a lot of humour here, but a serious and thought-provoking subtext pokes through. Poverty, an 'allergy' to money, is a cause of so many social ills. This poem goes to myfavourties list.
