The rich and powerful get more rich and powerful, but, as our Moroccan Prince discovered, in The Merchant of Venice- All that glisters is not gold, Often have you heard that told: Many a man his life hath sold, But my outside to behold: Gilded tombs do worms enfold. Steve

[... this framed poem was given to my grandmother in the 1890s upon the early death of her own parents ... so it's much older than that. The poem was written in carefully hand-drawn calligraphy with some nice original art around the edges. The glass was cracked which I replaced ... repaired the frame a bit, and it still hangs in my home to this day ... yellowing; but, the message endures.]
