Abandoned Soul

You step into the future With every moment that goes by, Your charred and twisted soul Doesn't question why... All earth is yours for taking, No other your equal, can be You see but your bank account, And that's your destiny, Slicing through all human values, As a machete' through the reeds, You litter this sweet world, With your selfish deeds A soul as dark as Hershey's Dark chocolate, I would think The actions that you take, Makes the human race seem to stink, Yes, dear Arnie, You have no conscience at all, You laugh at other people, When they take a fall You cheat your customers, You cheat employees too You are the epitome Of the shame that man can do You left your soul somewhere Surely it is not on this earth, And when you finally die, The angels will give you wide girth How sad to betray those who struggled, To make you such a rich man, So you could laugh as you cheat them, You just don't give a damn So A. H., enjoy your luxurious life Someday you will face a judge, When you pass from this life And St. Peter will not budge, Allowing you no entrance inside, The devil will call for you For payment time has come, And it's so very overdue.
