A Fire of Greed
A fire when burns,
Anything that touched fire,
Starts to burn
And loose his existence.
A fire of appetite,
Burns continue inside a body,
Keeps the blood warm
And provide life.
A fire of greed,
When burns; produces inequality,
Looses a balance of living,
And create problem to kill someone.
We can control the outer fire,
Also we can provide food,
We can satiate a burning body,
But a fire of greed, how can we control?
Nor even education,
Nor even religion,
Nor even Law, all are helpless,
To change someone’s nature.
