Money

By Parizo Van Thulare 

A paper with illustrations
A coin with symbols 
It is everything you buy
It is the state you bribe

One's mind you distract
One's eye you attract 
You have taken so many souls 
Yet you still continue digging holes  

You grew fangs 
And  recruited gangs
You made it clear 
And yes life without you isn't fair 

Everyone worship you 
You fed them with ego they grew 
Those that praise are few 
It's you that they chew
