Gluttony Makes It Dark

Rating: 5.0


Her lovely smile
With her outstretched hand
Such extinguished light
With hand so empty
Poverty drawn to light
Gluttony makes it dark

Poverty drawn to light Gluttony makes it dark Greed, is the seed of human misery, and seems to be this era's new anthem. I wish this would be read by more people.
