Need of Greed

Find your balance
Find your place
Goldilocks zone
Within this race

Our want in life
Versus our need
Survival progression
The urge to breed

Pare back our life
To simple pleasure
Take from our greed 
The time to treasure

Not frivolous frills
Bus simple sustainment 
Not always craving 
Entertainment. 

Take time to use
Our senses five
That ground us all
To strive to thrive.
