Accomplishments
easy to admire
famous
and well heeled
he is no one
you would want
to meet
a friend
who has known him
since childhood
told me
a warning
should the occasion
arise
I appreciate
for
it is not
always possible
to avoid
or even recognize
at first glance
those people
rich or poor
with or without
talent
who would
give you grief
just for
coming momentarily
into their lives.
