The Five W's of King Midas

by @francie-lynch

Who dares enjoy your gold with you? What good is it Midas? It's contaminated. When will you, if ever, enjoy it again? Where is your preferred seating now? Why persist with your follies? Don't touch me.

Notes

There are no shows, theaters, arenas, ports of call, restaurants, flights, etc., where the rich can spend their gold. And anyone who makes a profit out of our misery, may they have the Midas Touch.
