World Of Plenty? Poem by Tom Higgins

World Of Plenty?



Greedy people everywhere I look,
They brazenly hold their heads high,
And they see no need to weave or duck,
As their anti-morality they apply,
To every transaction that they make,
Which like their smiles are never real,
Selling more of that which is fake,
Be careful with who you place that deal!
The world now seems full of such men,
Will they ever answer for their crimes?
Will a time ever come when,
We'll see the advent of happier times?
Come for the innocent majority, who,
See the wealth being stolen from every nation,
In bewilderment they watch, what they do,
As they impoverish millions for the gratification,
Of the basest instincts which exist in man,
Take more than a fair and reasonable share,
And push, and grab it whilst you can,
Leave the bleeding hearts to care!
