Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Free verse

Notes About The Poem

" SHAREHOLDERS OF GOOD AND EVIL " MY PHOTO, ©

Shareholders of Good and Evil

We all

Shareholders of good and evil are

Since

This world we share the same.

But

Though the dividend of good, we rush to cash in

The

Dividend of evil we leave unclaimed 

Hoping

Someone else would show up to

Cash in the blame!
