...all the hordes of hypocrites
trying so hard to hide that they missed it.
the ones they feel at liberty to ignore
possess the answers they are looking for

money makes the world go round
they'll ask you to believe
as they add to their numbers
the people they decieve

all this to justify
their deeds and power hungry minds
their image of the divine
was replaced by double dollar signs

Money truly is the root of all evil. Nice write..............................

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
