Money

Why do so many
not have enough
for their most
basic needs

While others 
have
more
than they
can ever spend

They can’t
take it with them
in the end

Certainly not so, one would think they'd want to do more with it here such as, helping someone else; there are so many ways to spread it around. A generous lifetime means so much more.

Hi, I agree with you and the very few simple words you have used to express this is impressive. It is dis-balancing our environment , I wrote a few lines on my disgust in my recent poem " Billionaire Earth", do visit for your comments, if you find time. have a nice day

I think the ones who have way too much sometimes are basing their collecting from a place of fear, fear that they might lose or misplace their love along with their material items. I have no idea, as i try to never have that much.

I hear you, Caren. Having too much money is a curse... but it would be nice to make it our problem to give it away.
