Success has 3 (three)dollar signs Like this: $ucce$$. One at the beginning One in the middle and at the ending The last "s" for special designs. $ucce$$ is not solely about money Success should be about sharing and helping The community and its surrounding. Success should NOT be about being greedy Or about being number one Because you won't be able to stash the billion At your feet, inside the coffin. Leave a legacy of helping the poor And live a good and honest life, so the door Of Heaven will, one day, remain ajar. Copyright © December 2019, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved.

Success has 3 Dollar ($ucce$$) Signs
Do you feel you’re running twice as fast? But only getting half as far? Do you see your money doesn’t last? No matter how diligent you are? Do you want to know a better way Than the dollar’s debasing plan? A saving method - come what may? Well with Bitcoin you surely can! Save in a money with staying power Not in money losing strength Bitcoin’s yet young - a budding flower And will open full bloom at length Or, just keep on running twice as fast Yet not going far at all While the money printers have a blast And your savings continue to fall

It was march At the farmers market Still kinda cold outside There were people selling their odds and ends And vendors selling fruit inside At the back of the lot Set an old taco truck That sold tacos for a dollar a pop I had 3 and a glass bottle coke And wondered if I should buy strawberries or not

Springtime in Birmingham
Just was a desert, a land of sand, Where people got nothing but tanned, When years passed and they discovered oil, Time had come for them to uncoil, Thus riches and wealth knew no bounds, Now world’s tallest skyscrapers surrounds, They pray five times a day, No wonder god has blessed them so much they say, The dollar world itself looks at it with awe, Afraid of losing it’s glamour tries pointing each flaw, Not worried they still continue to grow with pride, Tired finally the dollar world tries to bribe, Wealth should be shared between the brothers I feel, To those of whom one meal a day is a big deal…

I thought you were my                        lemonade stand. But with every sip,    I knew that you were bitter upon my every taste.. And I asked for my dollar back. You told me,    that with every lemon there                 is always pips. but that every taste is different.

Lemonade Stand
If I had a dollar For each time you made me laugh I could bathe in gold and riches And that's not even half But if I had a smile For each time you stole my heart I could live my life forever With the feelings that you impart

If I Had a Dollar
What would I do for a million dollars? How much time would I let them have? I could tell you it wouldn't be worth anything, But security, let's talk maturely, I'd do anything sir. You want a man killed? Sure. Who is it I'm wacking? Sell paraphernalia to people? Okay, how much are we packing? Give them all my integrity Give them everything that makes me, me. Chain up these arms and pretend to be free. Sell them my name, Ryan Maroni? I use to be. I thought about it all for a bit With a pen in my hand, a chair where i sit. Looking over the contract, riddled with clauses. Hand stutter shaking, making my grip tight I put the pen down and paused. Then riped up the paper with all of my might.

For Crypto Fans
Sometimes I wonder if the dollar that paid for my soda was ever in a strippers underwear. And then...I wonder if the cashier is ever thinking the same thing.

Stripper Soda
If all it takes just a kiss of death to be gone for good forever. I wonder how a life becomes 'so worthy' to live it in the first place? The truth is all present times span out to the future to realise the potential of a newly born one! How could dead death can take it all in one ****** Or it just dumbs down on the surface digging deep into the diverse layers of the grand design of a life?

A Million Dollars Question
Tender, tiny dollar bill- you give my time such worth. Give my life to buy a thrill And a box put under earth. My gravestone sits over there; paid a pretty penny. Manages to look so fair Surrounded by so many. The car I drive is so nice For my ride to the yard Do not ask of me the price Lest your dignity be marred. My golden watch is better; Reminds of time well spent. Paid off the hassling debtor. Lived at work to pay the rent.

The Price
I met you across the subway, we took a walk at the Central Park. We went to a $1 pizza restaurant on our first date. And spend the rest of our date at The Met. We moved in together in an apartment in Tribeca. And we go to work in Manhattan. But one day on a sunset, you took me to The Empire State building and propose to me. And we got married at the City Hall.

New York kind of love
By Arcassin Burnham True nature would be equal to a God, But you rather ignore what you have, times are too short to be sad, Sacrificing so much for greed, all that you had, Time is ticking and we gotta listen, Lives are on the line to display the mission, While people walking around penny pinching. We are so not far from the end, Evils everywhere , even on the dollar that you spend, Nothing is fair, They told you about the beast, And how we always feed it, **** disability checks , go for achievements, We struggling with our **** demons, Down for a truth seeking mission, I aint reachin', Have enough hard time learning, I ain't teachin', People **** each other for the dollar, Steal from another all for the dollar, Keep a gun in their pants for the dollar, Selling their souls all for a dollar.

Dollar $ign
I only take a swing At the ball that's worth hitting I'm not going to go for each one, who am I kidding? It's like a phychlogical bidding It may not work out in the end It may not suffice at all Hence why I stay reticent and stall But I push myself a little more now I get castigated for taking a shot It gets lonely at the top So what if I flop I have a million dollar shine No more staring at the vines Just pure courage It may not happen But I don't care I could end up winning for life By taking that chance I want my words to make her dance And to see verification in my stance
