Kamran, my friend, this is so clever and cute! And isn't it the truth- excellent work, my friend. I loved the image you chose as well. God bless, my friend. Holly

Not as funny as it sounds as many people suffer this malady that for some has no cure and must never get too close that they might offend.

Humorous little poem. Its so true about the cost of everything now-a-days. Food costs are unbelievable. One can put forty dollars worth of groceries in two plastic bags, and the bags are not full by any means
well done, Kamran

Well dear, we'll just have to remember to floss after each hundred dollar bill. Maybe we can get change. (lol) I just couldn't resist that one. This was too neat. Thanks for sharing. PP

This was a powerful work Ameen. Inflation at its best, seems everything we buy has shot up in price.

There is much we have to swallow that can leave a bad taste behind. I think your work had a great depth to it.

I liked your picture. It really was a perfect match for your poem. The little fish getting gobbled by the big fish.

Very well done.
Thanks for sharing.
Maureen

Oh, you nailed this one, Kamran. I think this is a wonderful cinquain where syllable count fades into the background and all the reader notices is the rueful, satirical commentary.

This is how I love to see you write, my friend. You have the talent and the sagacity to take an untenable situation and show us the humor in it that allows us to chuckle and move forward.

Great image to accompany your well-scribed words.

"Living
Within my means
I do put my money
Where my mouth is but still I have
Bad breath"
