David Smith Poet Burlesque

All you need to know about Greed

Greed does not care if you refuse to listen,
   and give it a feed.
Greed does not care if you go without a feed,
   to fill more and yet more pockets, so others cannot feed.
Greed does not care about the reason you give it a cheep feed,

Greed does not care if the hungry go without a feed,
Greed does not care which resource,
   you use up in order to give it a feed,
Greed does not care if creeks can no longer give a river a feed.

Greed for resource management,
   does not see the need,
Greed for keeping some trees for life,
   does not see the need,
Greed for long term  management,
   does not see the need,
Greed for national parks,
   does note see the need,
Greed for green spaces ,
   does not see the need.
   

Greed for sharing,
   does not see the need
Greed for your future,
   does not see the need.
Greed for you to make a profit.
    does not see the need,
Greed for another tomorrow,
    does not see the need.
