Palm Beach Girl

Palm Beach Girl

A Poem by Baby Ricochet
"

A quick assessment of status

"


I was sitting in the coffee shop
When you sashayed on by
Nose in the air no you didn't care
Beautiful skin over toned up thighs

   Dior shoes Armani shades
Designer threads out to the nines
A big dumb horny redneck like me
  No baby you ain't got the time

My aw shucks grin and cowboy charm
That's not gonna work on you
A rich son of a b***h needs lots of green
To pull an uptown chick like you

I'm sure you'd love to cruise around
In my beat to s**t pick up truck
Forget the Bentley daddy drives
stick your heels between my rust

Somehow I just can't picture that
Even in my wildest dreams
Posing with your Prada handbag
You are just what you seem

I'm sure you've got a sugar daddy
Paying for an a*s that fine
Five star service french cuisine
The best in wine and dine

No baby girl I'm not judging you
I just know my social place
It's not to hit on girls like you
So I can avoid being disgraced

So I'll just sit here picking my teeth
It's A habit I find quite pleasant
I may be the heart of masculine pride
But In your world I'm just a peasant

People tend to stay within their own socioeconomic groups.
I posted this and edited the shit out of it after about 60 views so most of my die hard fans read a different poem. Oh well. The premise didn't change.

Hee...Hee...:)
I was actually wondering how it was composed without being s**t in it?
Anyways I am kidding.
Great work baby...!
It was a good subject that you covered.

Welcome
This is very true, I'm no stranger to snobbery, particularly from other women. However everyone likes a bit of redneck, cowboy attitude in their lives - and most will agree it's sexy, regardless of class. I'm no socialist, but I do reject the boundaries and divides of the class hierarchy.. It's often repulsive. Anyway, nice write, as always we see you announcing your ideas to the world through that gentle flow and menacing boy like charm!

Uh oh, I wasn't here yesterday so I didn't get to read the original, does that make me no longer a die hard fan O.O

No no no, don't be silly...kimmer is your number one fan ;-)

I really like this piece, Baby, for myriad reasons. First and foremost, it's a great write. The format is spot on, the rhymes never seem forced, and it flowed naturally. Add to that some pretty spectacular imagery, the fourth stanza especially ;-) and you've got a real winner here. I like what you were saying here, too...I like that you weren't exactly putting this girl down, because nobody deserves to be arbitrarily hated simply for the way they look or how much wealth with which they live, be it a whole lot or very little, so well done there. Knowing one's place is a pretty archaic view but it rather works here, I think, because it's used in this sort of folksy, hey I know I'm a Redneck and you're a Palm Beach girl and there is no way either one of us would ever be comfortable in the others' company so let's not even go down that country road ;-)

Anyway...you can tell I wasn't on yesterday and having review withdrawal...I think I just blew my entire wad on you xD

Great work...xoxo
