Lavishly Proud
Greed feeds lavish
More than enough,
Good must vanish
In rotten stuff.
Do you not see
Odd awkward rot?
What comes to be
In futile lot.
Evil lives well
On dreadful pain,
Vain in sure tell
Of rotten gain.
Lavish greed grows
To fester mad,
Proud pride now shows
Decay gone bad.
Trauma and shame
Draped in grand poise,
Vile grooms a name
To vent lame voice.
Blind is the man
Who cannot see,
Vain greed makes plans
To breed fancy.
