WHEN GREED COMES TO SHOVE * Ingenuity built the USA but Greed,brought it down andbrought it all down faster than that damn atomic bomb * As the greed seethes and permeates through their every waking hour, Look all around you everywhere and you'll see that money buys power * They have no morals whatsoever when it comes to making money They would think it's fine for an extra dime If they could sell their infant's kidney * They'll be taking all of it with them, or so they might like to think. Too bad they signed a contract with a pen filled withinvisible ink * I'll leave them with an afterthought over which they have no control they may think themselves superior but they're all going in the same hole! * WordPlaya, May 2009
