Our silver was not deemed expensive enough to be bothered stealing. I remember a guy called Charles (cannot remember his last name because it would give me enormous pleasure to publically humiliate him) who sat next to me ( the hostess)at a dinner party and unashamedly turned the silver over to examine the brand name.<br />PS<br />They don't hate each other.That would involve energy that is better spent on generating more wealth. Sorry for this long drawn out confessional.Any more poems on this subject and I wont comment because I cannot contain my moaning ,<br /><br />Oops almost forgot...good poem in portraying the depressing aspect of this social milieu.rallentandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06980559347805844568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30233877.post-68761552060450953302012-12-15T07:51:28.987+11:002012-12-15T07:51:28.987+11:00'and generally hated each other' nailed th...'and generally hated each other' nailed this image of ostentation for me.
