Gelt

Gelt

quintessential of the mankind 
for bread and butter
for toys and desires
for a ride to long highways to high mountains 
for a disease's physic to treatments to obsequies

Quintessential of the mankind 
Owes to his sweat and blood 
Owes to his sacrifice and slumber 
Owes to his peace and passion 

The gelt 
The quintessence of their incessant days 
The quintessence of their relentless dreams 
And I want diamonds that owes to the gelt...
