The Illusion of Grandeur

Challenging Society's Obsession with Expensive Gadgets

In a world obsessed with things so grand,

Expensive gadgets are in high demand,

But most of the people have no money to spare,

They rely on their parents, who can barely even share.

Buying gadgets that are all the craze,

Seems to be the newest status phase,

But, what's the point if it's just for show,

The negative impact is something we need to know.

Parents who can't afford these costly goods,

Put themselves in debt, with financial floods,

And what message does this send to their young,

That money is important, and showing off is fun?

Let's break this cycle, let's make a change,

Let's shift our mindset, let's rearrange,

Instead of seeking material gain,

Let's strive for true happiness, a life without pain.

Most of the people out there can't afford,

These expensive gadgets, that we all adore,

So let's not buy them, let's lead the way,

And encourage a world where true value will stay.
