The Greedy Have the Wealth

My soul shrinks --- It's also black as ink --- The ordor from it stinks --- Like a dead rat --- Which floats on a sewer flow --- Righteousness can not be found --- Decayedness is abound --- For my soullessness is here, upon this earthen ground --- Where even the songs of the Angels have ceased, by the blair of the horns of Hades --- Which resounds upon the ears of the walking dead of the earth --- Where misery is birth and happiness is death --- And the poverty stricken have the greed --- But the greedy have the wealth.
