Best Greedier Poems
X marks the spot
Monstrously Machievellian
Demonic pedagogic
Ominously Orwellian
Demagogic logic
Fools’ Musk-ovite mules
Zuckerberg zeitgeist heist
Dickensian dystopia rules
Google last post bugle
Fossil fuels myopia drools
Bellicose Bezos blows
Bro-ligarchy mates’ malarkey
Unions demonstrate
Amazon defenestrate
Hades Gates hierarchy
In the dock
Murdoch foxy skulduggery
Poxy TikTok runs amok
Crass puns..shock thuggery
This lot don't give a jot

Bitter sh**ter Twitter

The Miller's DaughterA tale of greed, power,
deception, discrimination and
love.
Miller, daughter, king—
All the actors are present
Except the small man.
The king summons the miller
for some reason. Summons a
humble working man.
Miller, shaken, scared,
Pleases king, saying daughter
Spins straw into gold.
The king, a...

The Cry of HosannaHis message to Mankind was divine love, much louder than
the desert wind hissing through the tall palm trees;
they heard Him, but sadly contempt built up when
they defiled the Temple by selling and trading instead of praying on their knees...
so Jesus got the whip and...

Ode
Best ThingsAll the best things in life are free.
Yes, money does make your life easier
But not much happier, you see?
So no sense in becoming greedier.
Saving up for the future's good.
Stashing some from every paycheck aside
As long as there's enough for food.
Those are cruel rules you chose...

Lyric
Loki's Lament and Curse Part 1 By Thomas Laufeyloki:
For nine nights only your own will had bound you
to the World ´s Tree, you treacherous God,
while I wore a chain that I chose not, forever:
With cruel fetter my freedom you took!"
Odin:
"Too cunning and unpredictable you were, too wild to roam free:
Greater your strength and...

John Moore 1843-1933John Moore
1843-1933
I was born with my lungs full of tarnation.
Leastways that was my mother’s version of it.
I do not believe anyone who was ever born,
Came Into this world kicking,
Leastways not like me;
I tumbled in, kicking like some drifting no account sodbuster,
Ready for the new...

Epitaph
Orwellian NightmareIs the world shrinking into an Orwellian nightmare
Where we are controlled and no longer dare
To be different from others in this world
With what the Internet and Facebook says is what is held
And leaders who look to control us to take over this media
With Presidents taking...

There Are Men Who Believe In NothingThere are men who believe in nothing,
who rely on their human strength
to accomplish greatness and image
to give realization to their ambitions,
while God is left out of their existence!
The deeper they dig the hard soil to find
treasures, the greedier they become;
their purpose in living is worthless,
they...

Adventured ServitudeIN VENTURED SERVITUDE
Faster and faster
it became my master
Quicker and quicker
I became sicker
I blazed a trail to the dark side of tomorrow
Then laid a highway to a city they call “sorrow”
More and more
I needed to score
And too oft the pickings were far too...

Billionaires hunker down in their Queenstown bunker lairs
Let’s pester Uncle Fester
After dafter Luxon
Pushed the button
Welcomed every glutton
To the isles of mutton

Stronger eclectic sceptic
Spanked by the rank

Saffa Jaffas spill like Seville
If you don’t play the big three
There’s no way
You should be seen
In the final of the WTC
That’s what’s been heard
Mean baggie greens
Have a word
Indians chagrin din
Simply absurd
Stokes bespoke blokes
Don’t give a monkeys
Run rates slate.. hate
Not WTC junkies
Ignore the pundits in their pulpits
Cryptic critics..cynics clinics
Ridicule the...

On a morning like this, lethargic and indifferent,
It is so easy to make me rich,
When the pain is moving slowly and smoothly, and
I hold on to you, like a monkey,
