Greed - Dedicated To New Jersey Female Victim Poem by Richard Wlodarski

Greed - Dedicated To New Jersey Female Victim

Rating: 5.0


Can you sleep
Knowing that
You killed her?

Her damned life
Needed you
Your power

Some sucking
Energy
From your plant

Your damn greed
Stole her life
Can you now sleep
Knowing she's dead?

It's extremely tragic but deaths such as this are termed as accidents in the final analysis. Thanks for taking up this serious issue.

Yes, it shows the lack of responsibility. A person dies and nobody is held accountable. Utter disregard for human life.

You're welcome, Rajnish. And it's even more tragic that they're classified as accidents. Lack of morality. Abundance of GREED!
