Greed is a word that greatly summarizes discontentment and selfishness. The following piece, which is the sixth poem of my Tanka (Emotions) Series, aims to illustrate an individual completely engulfed by this feeling.

Not a plethora

of properties nor prestige

is to contain a

discontented crocodile

but unlimited power.
