Wealth and Pain

Your wealth could work against you When those around you are there for it Your early death is of inordinate benefit They then serve to facilitate the ending Those around are usually partners In a life where one lives in communities Siblings, relatives & partners stay around Especially when the body gets weak with age When those around fail to be true You become source for money-grubbing Even after they promote early earthly exit Your legacy gets traded to sustain cupidity
