    when i was young
    without a plastic card
    i thought
    talents were only for
    talent shows

    talents

    like God gives you one
    or two or five
    and beware of the one who
    only had one
    a one trick pony

    talents

    but i know now thats in gold
    and talents are of old
    50 lbs worth or 1.6 million dollars
    if someone gave me two

    3.2 million dollars or 2 talents

    I'd invest them too
    But sometimes I care about the english
    language
    and what that might
    symbolize in God's word

    a talent
    2 talents
    5 talents
    then you earn 5 more from 5 talents
    and control 10 cities
    is this who rules the world?

    sometimes should I stop?
    How much is google groups worth?
    am I being responsible?

    I think this poem deserved criticism and comments, good ones, actually, maybe a modification, but I don't know if I will have time for it in 10 years, but I'm worried about this bible verse that talks about being responsible for like 8 million dollars,
    and earning 8 million more, and didn't feel the users of rec.arts.poems really picked up on this point
