Old Money vs New Hustle

Old guard woke too late

Turtle-slow their gait

Weak links, too many chinks

Sunny dispositions suddenly sink

Comeuppance comes quickly

Smiling so sickly

Life just shiny and fine

Living on borrowed time

Little more to gain meets

Nothing left to lose

To one a merry dance

Another a solemn trance

Sweet sorrows

Shifting tomorrows

Gamers will game when

All the world’s a stage

“So don’t sit back, kick back and watch the world get bushwhacked!”
