A short poem about something many of us love.Hope You Enjoy!
Im touted as the root of all evil,
Yet don't i give you power?
In times when you sob in the midnight hour
Its my company that you cry for
I can create divisions
But i can also make associations
I can give you dignity around your peers
I can create envy around your peers
I can make you look glamorous
I can appease your fears
Somesay i bring them happiness
Only there are some things i cannot do...
Love you back
As I dont have the sense
To be honest its you who give ME value
If you torch me i cannot protest
When you sob at night
I have no arms to comfort you
Its embarassing that i can have you killed if your with me too much
And i can make you kill just to to be with me
And what do you do when you get me at last......
You give me away
My name is M.O.N.E.Y
Do I ring any bells?
