What’s Wealth To You?

Pizzas

A friend of my son’s
Still remembers this house
Because I ordered them pizza
When he spent the night here
And I ordered him one of his own

He’d never had a pizza of his own before
And hasn’t had many, since

He’s grown up now
But that is still
His idea
Of real wealth

And it kind of makes me ashamed
Of some of the things
I’ve attached importance to

Chicago Deep Dish

The agony, the ecstasy
Of pizza right in front of me
Deep dish and Chicago style
Guaranteed to make me smile

Oh, the sin of gluttony –
It should not be applied to me;
For ancient wise men, low and high
Never ate Giordano’s pie
