For BetterA Poem by Amata LunaI’d rather be poor and a mind withoutFor Better Nobody’s perfect All people have flaws Then why do you boast When things are all just wrong You mock those who aren’t the finest You’re smug as if the best You wrong the ones you don’t know You laugh at how they fail Remember when you’re younger Naïve and yet to run You tend to ask the questions You know not all but fun Now that you know a little You swank as if you’re all Remember little one, The wisest never boast So if you see one tripping Failing over something Remember all your years Once when you were young Naïve without a piece Ignorant without a mind Character still is better Than riches or good looks I’d rather be poor and a mind without Than to lose my value and character to judge
