A Scandalous Inclination Poem by Marvin Brato Sr

A Scandalous Inclination

Rating: 5.0


Life is a maze of adversities
Myriad tribulations filling its route
As though it is a bloody killing field
Where hardy hearts fought the battle
Aim for secular honors depleting morality

Power blinds the innocence of man
Hunger for more becomes his obsession
As one grabs ruining the dignities of others
To boast personal gratifications and caprices
To sustain the pinnacle of mundane pleasures

Greed corrupts the sincerity of man
It is the only thing evil doers can connect
And tempt the integrity of the good beings
As to what extend they could hold moral pride
And negate from indulging scandalous inclinations

An interesting 'morality' piece voiced with conviction and a good feel for language. I wonder though, is it the wealth, or is it the greed for more, and the fear of loss that does the harm? I don't mind how much money people have. It's what they do with it that matters to me. This poem certainly got me thinking. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
