money? (no need for fluff, IE, is it all about)
more is less
greed is best
i need a fix

okay, it;s nothing like yours and it's not that good. but it does show how in a small poem less is better when it comes to the small words.

my 2nd and last line is cliche but i was rushing Tongue

the idea unless it's a flowery poem etc, is to keep it as tight as you can.
Money?
Thin wallet, Heavy mind.
I have a thirst
To quench.

Ok, I just revamped the poem so it's less cliché'd but tried to keep the essence of what I was saying. How much worse is this one Tongue. And thanks for your input btw..
way better Smile

thirst to quench is another cliche,

so you could be different and say;

i have a thirst
to scratch.

or something else to give it a little twist.

by the way. this is called work-shopping a poem and
the beauty of it is that everyone can join in or take ideas from it for themselves.
