The Love of Money

Post by mnaz »

The love of money.
Greed is righteous.
Timothy, Chapter Six.
Poor old naive Tim.

Jesus would kick the money
changers out of the temple.
He'd take a firmer stand.
The gospels all agreed.

the modern day greed has gigantic muscles
we've soared by the fat cats we had gotten used to
into a land of utter madness for more, more, more
initiated by monsters unable or unwilling to empathize

I grew up thinking monsters were only in fairy tales
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism
