A Social Climber Poem by Matt Starking

A Social Climber

Rating: 1.0


life is a ladder
and I am a social climber
climbing one step after another
but life is hard
so I have to move faster
if I want to get further
for the rich is getting richer
and the poor get poorer
even though life is tough
and things get rough
I believe I will make it
life will get better
for I come from somewhere
and now I am here
this is not my permanent place
it will not be like this forever
so far as there is life
there is more hope for the future
