Power
The Rolex shows power,
while ticking time every hour.
The gold shows wisdom.
Many years had to work to get it on that wrist.
Now that it’s there, won’t take it off.
Never loosen the grip.
The diamonds, they sure do look pretty.
But the grease, dirt and smut on the hard working hands didn’t.
So he cleaned them up, to match his watch.
Cleaned himself, up to feel top notch.
But when it comes off, back to the old he.
Dirty, Grimy and Gritty.
