Does Greed Have a Name

Does greed have a name? Does she call in the night? Does she answer when you call for her? Does she dance with you often? Does greed care About anyone but herself? That others need household goods too? Does she leave anything on the shelf? Does greed agree that she is totally one-sided? Concerned only for self, completely selfish? Is her heart hard? Her mind made up? Is it all about her?

Splendid work, makes me wonder in what all forms greed comes and reflects.

I am smiling. Seeing the greed come out in many ways during this sobering time.

Yes, and much more. I'm surprised you personified Greed as a woman and not a man or even a bratty child? And did you leave out Mr, Trump for fear of retaliations? It's one of his many traits. / M

No, I did not even think of him. I truly do not think most men are greedy which is why that one stands out.
