A RAZOR-SHARP VERSE EXPOSÉ OF WEALTH, WORTH, AND WHAT WE TRADE OUR SOULS TO OWNIn money money money, poet Armando Heredia dissects capitalism’s gilded cage with surgical precision and darkly lyrical wit. From the relentless chase for 'dead presidents' to the silicone-injected illusions of luxury, Heredia’s verses lay bare the addictions, absurdities, and empty promises of a world obsessed with status.Through five blistering poems, he unflinchingly explores:The violent hunger of greed ('Get all you can and can all you get / Even if you’ve gotta step on heads')The tragic comedy of cosmetic conformity ('Plastic pumped in with a syringe / But all that filler doesn’t give you depth')The quiet revolution of valuing time over treasure ('I don’t dream of mansions or Maseratis / Just time that I can own')With searing satire, haunting vulnerability, and a lexicon of money’s many aliases (from cheddar to gwop), Heredia forces us to confront our complicity in a system that trades humanity for hollow rewards. Part social critique, part existential lament, this collection asks:What does it cost us to win the rat race-and who do we become when we do?Bold, unsparing, and unforgettably resonant, money money money is a mirror held up to the broken American Dream-and a call to reclaim what truly lasts.
