False friends come
in pretty wrappers,
always charming, full
of themselves,
little do they care
to cut ties,
simply selfish, beyond
belief,
egocentric,
ego-driven,
false friends come
in pretty wrappers,
real cool, too cool, schooled
in manners,
in East Coast smooth,
propriety,
ending your friendship
on their terms,
nothing but cash money
keeps their
distraction in check,
to stay friends,
simply open wide
your billfold,
currency remains
the language
of false friends, candy
wrappers tossed,
may you never see them
naked,
especially hard
to resist,
in a heartbeat,
they drop people,
no one but their vested
interests,
pathetically ignorant,
cash
remains their prime
focus in life,
endlessly preoccupied
with
turning a buck
into hundreds,
turning hundreds
into millions,
yet, capital,
accrued interest,
win over no one
but false friends,
reminding themselves
of their worth,
assets like wives
and property,
properly assessed
by false friends,
pertain
only to accountants,
eventually, they find
themselves
reflected
by associates,
surrounded
by their own image.
