That is a threat!

You can be only one
...

tying things to my happiness

to it, full of rules and
regulations to manage my

Once there was a good family
in a very bad city

they sought comfort
...

Those old boxes
they were many

empty now

are you given a box with
some fear and a dash of love
and a bite of punishment

because I don't love my self
very well?
...

How much cash
does the Big Guy need?
How does He use it,
you know there's no greed
...
