Selfishness and Greediness

Egoism isn't a sin But not encouraged When selfishness goes with greediness Goes without empathy and sympathy He thinks only of himself Upon his own benefits When in happiness He keeps all to himself He is the only one to deserve When in sufferings He says he should not be The only one to suffer When people suffer He has no feelings for them He always yearn for more benefits Than he deserves Greediness is always standing by In his heart A narrow view of thinking indeed He doesn't realise The world is not only his Not even his God
