What ever happened

To humility and altruism?

Tell me when

The tables turned...

When people

Started bending over

Backwards

To fill their dirty

Pockets with more green

When fingers itched

To embrace a few more

Benjamins,

When eyes lit

Bright with greed.

Hey there!
Care to share?
I didn't think so...

So tell me,

Where did all

The love go?

****

Don't you see?

It's all a distraction

No matter how big

Your house is,

How much your car

Is worth,

Or how much you have

In your bank account

We're all heading

Six feet under...

A doomed fate

Not as hard to share.
