When Greed Outstrips Needs (A Rondel of 13 lines) <br /> <br />When outstripped are our needs by Greed <br />Or love of Fame our still outweighs, <br />We rush along on mirky ways; <br />All moral laws we cease to heed. <br /> <br />Traffic signals failing to read, <br />At break-neck speed our aims we chase, <br />When outstripped are our needs by Greed <br />Or love of Fame our skill outweighs. <br /> <br />To harming others should this lead, <br />So what? For Fame so strong our craze, <br />The banner 'buy or bribe' we raise! <br />We mind not making others bleed, <br />When outstripped are our needs by Greed.<br /><br />Dr. Tulsi Hanumanthu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-greed-outstrips-needs/
