voice of ambition

beautiful and rich they look
most of them fat
a tribute to good life
a life of food and wine

such a life i wish to live
to eat all that i want
and when i want
oh!thin wretched me!

in my car i will seat
a chauffer driven one at that
sailing through life without worries
ah!a life so sweet!

here i am,the gutters i clean
everyday at dawn i come to do this

Mmm but the real beauty is to be found inside-which you reflect.

This poem is truly beautiful. It's wonderfully written, and it has the exact opposite of the American ideal(rather than being stick thin, you aim to be larger), which I love.
