Oh That Colourful Design

OH THAT COLOURFUL DESIGN…

That colourfully designed  paper that can make one insane…
Crazily sought after by young and old,
Humans live on it till they die
Always throwing men into mayhem.

Preferred above nature
Preferred above love
Preferred above the beings
Even above the universe.

Religious houses,homes,society are in trouble,
Can make you powerful with it
And hopeless without it.

A scarce tool which everyone need…
Readily available for murderers, robbers,
Assassins and ritualist…
You might become a ritualist to have it in surplus.

May heal but can destroy
You can only survive with it in hospitals.
Elders no longer live long,
Children destinies thwarted.
 
Please go back to where you came from!
Let us live in peace and harmony…
Its more harm than pleasure!
Mr M...

Money and Poverty is a heartbreaking topic. I feel the pain in your words.
