A free verse poem.
Stigma says money equals success,
Claiming cash will purchase recognition.

Society states wealth dominates righteousness,
As unethical results overpower principles.

Achievements are not by treasuring coins,
Or by honoring a high reputation.

Succeeding is a matter based on responsibilities,
Wrestling to earn dignity through self-respect.
