The greatest takers, users, abusers?
Money people,
money traders,
Business: industries and corporations.
Banks: debt kings;
polluters of minds, land, sea and sky;
twisters of reality; buyers of "love"
sugar-coated in ad campaigns.

Their money: worthless manipulated numbers
from high-rise dungeons.
What energy lies at their source?
None. For-giving no longer comes near
those gilded dens of impoverished thieves.
Kings of "greed";
who worship, live and die
at the feet of their idol: Mammon.
A burden so heavy to carry,
only bankruptcy can break them free
of their bondage!

Yet more jump in the gap,
raping and pillaging remnants
of natural resources and labor
for only these are real enough
to feed their drunken greed.

Have we reached the end?
Are we beyond a choice
as to whether "Money"
will consume earth
and sacrifice the last human?

so much of life involves money

nice if you have enough to be comfortable but hell if you don't

I sometimes drive by the rich neighborhoods and wonder how the people got so rich and what they do...and wonder why I'm struggling day to day, on the edge of losing what little I have

good writing!

what an empowering write ... money took over as a credit form for doing good deeds for one another... where is all the good will now? ....when we all sit like kings counting our piles of gold.
