The Richest Man I Ever Knew

You ask me if I'm wealthy. You gotta be joking
That's like asking a worm if he thinks he's a snake
because snakes, also, crawl on their bellies

I'm poor because I own nothing.
I'm rich because nobody owns me

You reply, but you seem not to worry about money
Why worry when you have enough for tomorrow,
and the day after you might be gone
