Daily Prompt: Avid

Everyone remarked her tastes were lavish

She hoped they were above average

Said, “In society you have to have leverage”

Spending for “looks” she didn’t like steerage

The uppity noses of neighbors with peerage

She tried to impress with expenditures growing

All the while her bank account lowering

Husband responded, “your attempts have been avid,

But for acceptance, they’re certainly not valid.”
