I’m a poet, and I didn’t even know it.- Wrong…
Check out Aridni. They are currently having a financial/entrepreneurship/business poetry contest. Aridni’s Poetry Contest: Mixing Business with poetry. Here’s my poem that I submitted for the contest. I hope you like it!

I’ve seen many men throw away their money.
I would even point and laugh and think it was funny.
People will buy gold and expensive liquor.
Little do they know, their debt is getting thicker.
I try to explain and tell them you’re way out of sight.
But all they do is shout and want to pitch a fight.
“Stop judging me! I can spend all my cash.”
Little do they know, it’s gone in a flash.
After mounds of debt, they come knocking for advice.
Know they realize debt is like a bad case of lice.
Stop buying crap and pay down your debt.
Did you really need to buy a diamond necklace for your pet?
You’ll find your retirement money in your shoes to be sold.
Now sell all your stuff like your baseball hat and your mouth full of gold.
Your life is not over. You didn’t soil it.
But stop throwing money down the toilet.

















Thanks for linking to the contest and adding the poem! Good luck on the contest! =D
