A Golden God

Money has conquered humanity. It has made man blind and created insanity. Finally, the truth can be told: money has made mankind callous and cold. It has taken a long time for money to destroy man's mind. It has pushed our common sense aside and replaced it with a lie. Humanity has given money full control while it has stolen humanity's very heart and soul. No longer does mankind think that we can survive without money and stay alive. Money has conquered mankind's life. It has stolen day and night. It has put the imagination on hold to only seek out platinum, silver, and gold. It has started wars and conflicts among mankind. It has truly driven us out of our minds. There might be no way back to where we all should be at--a place where peace and love rule the day. A place where good will and love have their way. Now, money is being abused and causing mankind to have a short fuse. The vision of the future has become black, The lack of money is the reason for that. If there was enough money to go around the world would stand on solid ground. Finally, it brings us days full of fear and frustration and anxiety is found everywhere. People falling in poverty hold exchanging paper for what was once gold. The middle class has become the new poor, the poor reaction is chaos and war Finally, mankind has been brought and sold for paper representing silver and gold. It is so very odd that mankind now worships a fake but paper and golden god.
