SON! This is That Time
The world is cruel and unfair,
The rich can boast and pay any fare,
The average can try and survive in the rich's lair,
The poor can do nothing but watch and bear,
with no one to speak up, no one to dare,
But the next generation becomes a mystery,
The poor dreams of wanting to escape his misery,
The rich still lives in the glory of his past history,
And so, the poor becomes the rich, with hard work and sometimes sorcery,
and the eyes of the rich become pained and watery,
Now, the new rich forgets the pain from his source,
He forgets his past, and walks in the rich man's flaws,
Now the new poor searches for all sorts of doors,
He has learnt the pain of the poor and experienced his laws,
and now feels as though, he is with a curse,
Now the rich makes an ungodly mistake,
He has made a bet much higher that his stake,
and in his former bed, he will find himself wake,
The poor has given a lot more and can now take,
He has endured a lot and can now eat his true cake,
But the average has been forgotten? NO!
He is the main character of this story you know,
While the rich and poor kept changing their flow,
The average never went high nor low,
He progressed and didn't mind being slow,
He has cultivated his son and not for fame,
Has taught him the reality of life and its brutal game,
Showed him the path to take and the beasts to tame,
Taught him how to survive and make a good name,
And when all was set and the moment came,
He held his shoulder and with pride, he said...
SON! This is that time
