The queen of diamonds
wears her rings
A life of fortune
materialistic things
The queen of hearts
has a bigger downfall
she loves to love
and loves with her all...

Hold on to what's most dear
Hold on to memories
Hold on to the past

Make it last
Find a voice that fits
Buy what smiles

Spend what desires
Accumulate materialistic objects
For a materialistic world....

Dimes.

Materialistic s**t.

Business buildings

Filled with

Empty yieldings

And fake grit.

Human robots

With no feelings

Except believing

Power and dimes

Is all that

Exists.

Concrete....

At times, some people's souls are so materialistic that they try to sell themselves to the devil for worldly pleasures. And the devil rejoices everyday like a junk shop for bargain and wasted souls.

I think he was better than me 
He saw more than me
He wasn’t as materialistic as I was and didn’t seem to care about the differences 
Our quotient was still just me thinking about being lesser than someone who ripped away...

Billionaires
flaunt a lifestyle
we can
only dream of;
luxurious yachts, 
opulent
mansions,
solid gold 
toilets,
decadent
precious stones,
and world-class cuisine; 
all materialistic,
posh,
and ostentatious....

No word of expression
Numb with the silent
No words but a truth
In the materialistic world
If you want to help
But you cannot help
How you would you say a word
No extension 
Without dismay
Without tyranny
Blank word
No fill ups...

Do we really own anything
     Do we even own our lives
Why is there so much effort
     It seems, that each of us strives
To accumulate things
      In a materialistic view
When we cannot take things with us
     We’re just passing through...

Greed sparks
the ravenous cravings
of a secular mind.

With insatiable hunger 
their spirits covet
desiring beyond need.

Insensitive humans
cannibalize their brothers
with no end in sight.

Where is compassion 
when legalities 
have no morals....

Materialistic Sorrow


It’s not
a gun
Or 
the funny rope
The crooked cross
On the pale tomb
Or leaf
of the wreath
Dog puking blood
And seeing
two moons
On a single perception
It’s all
a materialistic sorrow
And –
That’s what – 
- I’m not 
- talking about....

Kinship 

On my knees,
I found the broken pieces 
were all about our broken treaties. 
So singular,
Less materialistic shrieks.
This was your demanded  'relationship' ,
Where I was dead under 
your beloved 
'kinship'.

To reach out for no reason,
not just at the holidays,
but anytime,
is a unique gift of time worth giving.
Not materialistic, but can move in a different way.
Warm contentment,
when a few words arrive,
so very unexpected.
It energizes, 
this break from the ordinary,
coming from you....

God wants you to have the best
It's not about being rich 
For all the pearls, gold and diamonds and material things
Shall burn up, so why praise and acuminate them
Watch out for those things you buy, steal or own
Over abundant burns
Materialistic

I want some more; I need more

money, clothing, and food. Give me more.

Stuff me full of chemically altered nutrition;

Dress me in flashy, and unnecessary, fabric;

Let me invest every cent I've earned 

on more materialistic goods and services, maybe 

I need control, but I want more....

Materialistic pleasures are ripples in the water
       Seem elegant but vanish soon
Ripples will not prevail in the perpetual rain
      they get dispersed due to over flow
Non-materialistic pleasures are water in the sea
      Seem salty and briny but immortal
     They would never ever get drained...

Only When The Hope Dies

"Love! Isn't it beyond win and lose? Isn't it giving and unconditional? Winning over someone and desire are too materialistic words to define its divinity. It is sublime and humble.
It attains it's purist and truest nature only when the Hope dies, he replied her."

I yearn for you
when you're
not near me
so I can
see your face,
hear your voice,
be in your presence.
It's a feeling
that's hard to describe
but you
know what it is
as you wait
for the next time
you will
be together
with the
one you love,
deeply care for
more than all the
materialistic treasures
on earth....

In the heart of the fire, there lies its essence
Beauty isn't found outside the world but deep within.
True Happiness doesn't derive in materialistic possession 
But in little things we share together around.
I desire, not of the high status but Simplistic living!
Sharing the little things we have I find the real meaning....

what's in my mind
for long i am trying to find

memories of strangers
love of two unlovable
story of mistakes
poems of romance
kisses and scars
fear and pain
darkness with tears
separation and brokenness

uh!oh is everything a trash?
a materialistic mind popped
wow still life is beautiful
the artist inside him smiled...

Whether real hard or pretended to be so 
Any heart can be pierced  by one's politeness 
Without archery skill and arrow and bow 
Whether real hard or pretended to be so 
Affects positively, works slow although 
Wins at last in materialistic race 
Whether real hard or pretended to be so 
Any heart can be pierced  by one's politeness...

MATERIALISTIC

           A MIST or ICE on a TRAIL, will not stop a MATERIALISTIC
           Person who loves to shop, without paying heed
           to the cost of purchase, buys for desire and greed
      An automaton autocratically authorizes Avant-Garde accessories.

A lane leading to somewhere
Grasses towering high
Hidden creatures, pebbles, mud and sand 
To be discovered by those
 Who want to explore 
The countryside
The wilderness 
A short-cut among bushes 
The sense of nature 
An abandoned part of the village
The sense of poverty
Or
The flow of youngters to the city
A materialistic world...

We didn't start out this way
We didn't plan for this
We created this

Our ancestors didn't think about
Corporations
and
Cars

What were their dreams?
Were they as materialistic as ours?

Survival only has one road
But many potential avenues to travel

It all ends up the same
My friend

Death
That final unconquerable
Obstacle...

Demons all around me
Waiting to suck out my soul
Angels have also found me
Waiting for me to pay their toll

Rain falls downs on you
It drenches your cotton clothes
Piercing sun still surrounds you
Making dreary feelings decompose

Why are you touched by materials
The way I am touched by the mind?
You love the taste of your cereal
It reminds me of a simpler time...
