Greed
I see corruption take its place.
Some would call it, “An ace.”
Though it is manipulation none the less.
In return, but one’s caress.
One benefits while others suffer.
The reek of greed, it rivals sulfur.
I wish to prove we aren’t all bad.
The truth however, it is quite sad.
We are evil, we are dark.
Though we act as if it’s a walk in the park.
To make use of other’s weakness, in body or mind.
And yet we pretend we are always so very kind.
I cannot say I am not the same.
But for the world’s darkness, I am not to blame.
I can’t stand to witness, as they all feed.
The shadows of the heart we call greed.
We all feel it, but we control and we don’t react.
It’s their weakness, pray one day they grasp that fact.
