    This was also different although I found the ryhme in some places to be a tiny bit forced it was as though because you were making this all ryhme you felt as if you had to actually throw a ryhme in. Not in all ut just in some areas. Again word choice was simple yet effective, I did love the story behind this it was interesting and spoke great truth. A good effort was put into this poem. Well done~mel

    It was an ok poem, the flow was a little off, but the structure was amazing. i have to give you a 5/5 for this one.

    You aren't worth our time, nor our love,
    So your stinking money, you know where to shove.

    those are my fave lines

    I like the substance. Though I wished you could have elaborated such a humanistic viewpoint, I do find this work quite interesting to read. Well, most--if not all--know the outcome of this type of thinking: destruction; and, besides, a man working on the field and the emperor sitting on his throne are one and the same like peas in a pod. It made me ponder over certain things, nevertheless. Thank you for sharing, I had an enjoyable visit. :)

    Best wishes,

    'So your stinking money, you know where to shove'

    ^Oh, amen to that honey lol.

    Haha, this poem was so cool. I've never read a poem like this one before and it's a shame because I really enjoyed this topic. It's so true. I hate when you go to school and then there's always that rich, popular kid with american eagle clothes that they'll only wear once and then donate it to goodwill and for their 16th birthday their parents go out and spend $30,000 on a brand new volvo or mazda. I hate it when people have the attitude of 'my dad's a brain surgeon and your mom can't even cook an egg'. Omg, i just wanna pop those people one right in their noses!

    Haha, anyway, nice poem. Loved it. You should write another one like it lol

    Sreat poem, i agree with marian that i wished it could have gone more in depth. such an interesting view point poem it made me want to read more. Plus the rhyming all worked well with maybe a tiny bit being forced.
    all in all though a good poem, well done.
