The greed of the 21st century <br />Upon humanity seen, near and far <br />Financial institutions fallen <br />Corporations shaken <br />Greed taken hold of human souls <br /> <br />Greed, too much for a few <br />The middle falling out, <br />The bottom melting to sunder <br />Greed, taking a hold of humanity <br />Boldly, greater and greater <br />The system is waning <br /> <br />Greed, in nations of the world <br />People with much, look away, <br />People with the least nourishment <br />Paying more and more <br />Will someone help to arrest <br />The cause of greed? <br />Will the greedy give something back? <br /> <br />Raise your voices not only to <br />Joyful encounters, stand up <br />Be counted with those who <br />Painfully goes to bed, hungry, <br />Wake up in despair, <br />Lend a hand, you who have much, <br />Help to eradicate greed! <br />One world humanity lives, <br />Your time to help is now!<br /><br />Winston Harding<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/greed-54/
