The 10 Magical Digits

From the 10 digits 0 to 9
Numerous numbers are formed
Showing man's talent in calculation
These digits and numbers
Are then being widely used in
Gambling
Wealth estimation
Time calculation
Science and Mathematics
Leading to civilization and greed
But finally greed dominates civilization
And rules man's heart and soul
Making him a slave of 
Merely 10 small and insignificant digits

An argument rages if math was actually discovered or invented by man, Sai Lin, but hey your poem has just added another whole dimension to the argument, perhaps it was stolen through man’s greed, cheers David
