Ego

A line of sports cars fill the driveway
A balloon pops in the sky
The lady ponders her next promotion
The wheels are already rolling
Naked and bear the ego awaits
To check in a swish hotel via the gates
For who could see that it was snowing
While dining with lanterns glowing 
Jewels and money talk louder than prayer
Says the ego with majestic flare
Spending a Summer’s night under the stars
Another credit card bill, it must be yours
Shuffle through letters and mail
You won’t find any peace in this pile 
For as long as you wear that expensive watch
And brag about cars and frocks 
You will not meet with a life as such
And your ego will run amok
