Goals Quote by Glen Rambharack
“The rich man in goal the poor man in filth. The rich man lay on his lazy boy leather couch. The poor man sits on the dirt floor. The rich man pours out wine, The poor man cry his tears. The rich man feed is dogs at his table, that barked at the poor man at his gate. Both the rich man and the poor man die together, the entire city came out to honor the rich man. The rich man get's a fancy expensive funeral. His Casket impress the eyes of those alive. The cemetery he is bury in, is reserved for the wealthy. A marble head stone is place on his tomb. So many fancy cars line up to his grave, with well dress people, some of them are even honestly crying.”
