Being broke hurts but
worse in planting seeds
on a metallic surface
And proudly expecting
a great harvest.

one can always draw a picture
of the future
Though not a draw of how
fortunate you will be.

we watch and criticize
yet our lives are filmed
with drama.
we grow to see a bright tomorrow
but usually loose focus on the past
much as a tortoise feeds poorly
it lasts for ages even without care.
