Greed

Human souls,
Ripped about, with blissful,
Ignorance.

Human lives burried.
Under the care of,
Lives too rich to knowlege their,
Pain.

Human hearts.
Torn under power hungry beasts,
Never drop a penny, for those in need.
Never drop a dime to cleanse a,
Disease.

Battered cages.
Are where the lives are left,
Oh those who have no loved ones.
Are left to rot in their pain.
Ditched by those who they call,
Citizens.

lives,
Destroyed by,
Deeds of those,
Who don't care for,
The true citizens of the,
Nation, of desperate needs so why,
Is nothing done to help the people?


Who rot by ignorance of greed.

    Inspired by heather, indeed
    She has some brilliant writes with some great truth! The ideas throughout the poem are heather's indeed - but put in your own beautiful words.
    I love this poem for it's truth - as I agree as well
