Greedy


Unforgivable vanity
Egotistical excess
Inexplicable lust
Roaring ugly beast
Green wicked eyes
Cold stone heart
Ruthless
Greed

Well-melted, Line...You've sifted the topic, and extracted its essence...And, oh, those green wicked eyes: The Snake Himself approacheth -- En garde! Should do well in the contest, methinks. Best of luck! ;) gw

Greed - the anti-spiritual characteristic. I STRONGLY and TOTALLY agree with your accurate poem; greedy people probably wouldn't agree initially because being greedy they would want many, many, more lines. Takes good to see the good in the smallest of large blessings. This poem is a truth-gem! Poetry hugs ... CayCay
