Greed Poem by Qiniso Mogale

The world is governed by greed
Countries are ruled by the greedy
Communities are led by the greedy
Companies are run by the greedy
Even Churches are shepherded by the greedy
Families fall apart because of greed.

Many relationships have been destroyed by greed
Many divorces because of greed
Economies have been shattered by greed
Once economic power houses are languishing in abject poverty
It is a sorry sight to behold
It is a crying shame
Greed is a destroyer
Greed is a weapon of mass destruction.

Because of greed many have sold their souls to the devil
Many have back stabbed their close friends and Family members
Many are murderers
Many resemble Judas Iscariot
Yes, many are sell outs.

Let all be wary of greed
Let all guard their hearts against greed
Let none be lured by greed
Let none be enticed by greed
Let all avoid greed
Let all allow greed to be orphaned
Let all permit greed to be without a friend.
