Greed Has Gotten Good Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

Greed Has Gotten Good



If newspapers spread what use bed-sheet?
What use vehicle with a pair of feet?
Small is my footprint's tread,
What fuss is all this greed?
Comes when time, bare handed must I quit.
Drop by drop still it fills,
No one knows when it spills,
Platitudes feeling good, we repeat!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
What will man do if there was no such thing as greed? But greed feels good, as do platitudes against it. With earth getting depleted on resources, man gets loaded with things most of which hardly add to utility and are harmful. When watches can be wound, why batteries which add to pollution? Why remote when one can get up and operate? It is good exercise. Many of today's innovations make little sense.
