Greed

How come we always seem to want more?
There's nothing to gain from the things we can not use.
Still the greed pushes us forward
into every direction in search of satisfaction.
A satisfaction which can never be obtained.
To bask in the riches is hardly enough.
Why quit while there's so much left out there?
Taking everything untill there's nothing left.
But society has us wanting even more.
Who cares about the poor?
Only the individual possessions matter.
It saddens me to see us destroy ourselves.
While we're too blinded by the riches to notice it.
And nobody cares while we pry
the money out of the hands of the dead.
