Literature Text

He's completely untouchable,
the way he walks,
and talks.

Everyone stares,
as he flicks the money in the air.
He is untouchable,
above the law.

Women stare while he smiles back,
the CEO the one who makes the calls.
His cockiness soars,
as he pays off the cops.

No one can touch him,
not even the law.
He pays off the politicians,
as they turn a blind eye.

He really is untouchable,
for he is the king.
He can buy everything,
even a rare diamond ring.
So this is another writing prompt the theme this week is untouchable. :happybounce: La la la la  Now the first thing that came to my mind was how people with money usually get away with a lot. CURSE YOU!  So the perfect character for my poem is a CEO. I hope you enjoy my poem and I would love any feedback good or bad Meow :3

Really strong right up until the end. You could just remove the last line entirely (or even the last stanza), and it'd be a stronger piece, I think. There's a lot you could say that's more impactful than saying the guy's got the capacity to buy an expensive ring. =P

What could really work is ending it with "He can buy everything,/ Except for his innocence." That'd be a twist.
