King Midas - Rewriting Mythology

The world is filled with fools. They only lust after money and gold, they cannot see further. They utter my name in vain, they say this man or that man has the Midas Touch, They say whatever they touch turns into gold. They are rich and powerful. Poor fools and they don't know it!
Alas, I am the only one with the Midas Touch. Me, King Midas and I am bloody miserable. It's a curse rather than a blessing.
You don't believe me? well, try making love to your sweetheart, all wrapped in foil to prevent her turning into gold.
