Wheel of Wealth

Wealth is a wheel which
vice and virtue turning well.
Solo vice follows,
fain to the wealthy abodes.
Why the virtue left behind?

Another of your poems that made me think Jenish. I do not think it is just the wealthy sadly. I think there seem to be more unprincipled people in the world today in general. Maybe I am feeling this way because of current affairs, or maybe because of my advanced years...

Yes Shirley.. Your observation is better than my youthful eyes.. Wealth is not the problem, but the lack of principle...
