Greed is like a disease….

Image via Wikipedia

Greed or need,

whoever designed it

is laughing at us,

despite its resemblance

to wealth,

it cripples health,

destroys the land,

flows freely

like grains of sand,

it spreads everyday,

like a necessity here,

it frightens without fear,

money and fame is the lure,

death is the cure.
