At all costs

The goal was clear from day one
Wealth was the destination
Realized by doing all she could
Enduring all humiliation

Only crime was off the table
If it was legal then could happen
She thought Poverty was for the feeble
Like her parents who accepted all outcomes

She worked her strategy like a razor
Cut to precision on the chess board
No one would get in her way
Not love nor hate would hold sway

10 years later a bittersweet smile
A rough road and a few knockdowns
Giving up her morals and living a lie
But accomplishing those goals to the letter

Sort:  

You sure do write well.
