Bobette Bryan's Poetry
The Price of Success
The more successful you become,
the more fake friends you値l have.
The more popular you are,
the more jerks you値l have to deal with.
The more wealth you have,
the more ass-kissers you値l have following you.
The bigger your name becomes,
the smaller your real identity becomes.
The more material things you amass,
the more baggage you値l have to haul.
The more famous you become,
the more psychos you値l attract.
The more of all of the above,
the more neurotic you値l become.
Success comes with a price tag of its own.
