penniless but happy,
than overflowing with
riches but miserable.
Much better off alone,
than surrounded by sharks
in a sea of bad company.
I'd rather be a starving artist,
with no money for his next meal,
than withering away in a career
where my disappointment
cannot be concealed.
Better to be grateful
with the little I have,
instead of blessed
but oblivious;
no other outcome
could be quite as sad.
