I & My Bull

I raised a bull
Fed and fed it
But it was never full 
Greed upon greed sit.

I made it so fatty
But it was quite hollow
Looking like so pretty
Really was a stupid fellow.

I fed it the false Fame
I fed it the false Pride
Wealth was without shame
And it spread wide and wide.

Once, the bull blazed in the rage
Destroyed it all, blocked my ways.
