The Pride of Greed

David Brown


Welcome to the world where greed is bred into different breeds. 

Where the demon of GREED patrols it civilizations riding on pride.

He hides it deception in the eyes for a luxurious ride

And entices its prey with the gain of this transient world. 

He robs the civilizations of true  love, peace and harmony 

and replaces it with a void that seeks lust, war and instability

He sends blackmails to every nation with a leverage  of posterity


Leaving it naked lying with lust,

and peril  that brings men to their knees and turns them to dust.

Alas! it has gained a footstool and established his throne

A throne that only thrived in the hearts of men 

And  controls the desire of his foot soldiers from his stool.

The nations are being lured and seduced to buy into a wisdom 

that only makes them lovers of themselves. and robs one of  freedom

This has only birthed hatred, envy and yielded wickedness for  ourselves. 


To keep me from this insanity I have to recite the Holy creed

 lest I become His assassin.

Many lives and destinies have been sacrificed and offered 

as sweet smelling fresh stink unto greed.

Beneficiaries hail him whiles the victims weep 

that their thirst may be quenched. 

But they know all too well that  that is impossible

The thirst for more deepens  nevertheless  so much that it's insatiable

Will this kingdom divided amongst itself stand? 


In the midst of this struggle and pain.

A being of light clothed in beauty that shines 

brighter than the days light offers an elixir of life.

It offers the soul love and cleanses greed's rife.

A beacon of righteousness that signals hope and seizes the strife

The peace that surpasses all understanding has forever been his royal emblem.

If only we would buy this priceless wisdom this struggle will end. 

Look!  

See!

Behold!

He has been here all along and still offers  to us to share in this diadem.
