We Keep Different Company Poem by Francis Duggan

We Keep Different Company



We keep different company and you drink expensive wine
But this is your business and your business no business of mine
You are climbing the success ladder and doing financially well
And of your successes you do like to tell
Your wife and your twenty years old son each have an expensive car
And in the corporate World you aim to go far
And though i wish you well in your financial and material success
Those into promotion of self me does not impress
Since those into self promotion i meet every day
And self praise is no praise as the wise one does say
Though promotion of self nowadays with many does seem their in thing
You should leave it to others your praises to sing
I will not become a member of your fan club
Though you have many admirers who socialize in the town's every pub.
