Life Style Choice.

The choice to go

into politics, industry,

work and fleece millions

out of their hard earned dough,

by casually calling it an investment,

when really it nothing more

than gambling on a higher

stage, place your bets,

roulette wheel time,

money as safe as houses

in a time of repossession,

should be seen

as a life style choice,

not to be lauded

or having the craft

of the artist sully their hands

with handouts to those who benefit;

keep the hard working coin

earned out of reach to those

who sit on the corner in pin stripe suits

and similar sounding rhetoric,

they would only waste it

on the spin of the wheel

as they pursue their life style choice.
