(7) Seven Deadly Sins: Greed

WICKED!
GREEN!

The WICKED GREEN finger of greed,
Greed not man nor woman,
Greed not human at all,
Greed not beast either,
To be fair Greed cannot be a demon,
Greed is nothing more than an abomonation,
A mistake,
A Poison,
A sludge,
Its the PURE essance of garabage,
Greed does more than take,
Greed does more than take ample,
Greed takes to the point that others don't just not have,
But others don't even know what it is to have,
Greed consums,
Greed engulfs,
Greed truly feeds off the failure of others,
To have is to have,
To want is to want,
To need is to need,
But Greed is to have and want, to the point were it is a Need,
The Horns on greed,
Long,
Crooked,
Curvy,
Dirty,
Foul,
Horrid horns,
The horn of one who has what is needed and wants more,
A coin,
A simple gold peice,
Dropped on the floor,
Makes a large mushroom cloud,
A massive amount of fallout,
In the eyes of Greed,
Greeds assistant Gluttony thinks much alike,
Envy and Luster want Greeds help too,
Greed,
A powerful creature,
A insulting emotion,
A repealing personality,
Greed,
A Deadly Sin Indeed,
It's death is,
Only,
It's birth and begging,
Greed,
Kills,
Greed.

Greed: 7DS: Revamped.

7 Deadly Sins: Greed

I must have it all,
Greed has many friends,
Greed would and could be the base of the 7 sins,
Yes Greed could be the leader,

Greed controls Luster, You must have such a touch,
Greed controls Pride, You must be the best,
Greed controls Envy, You must have whats not yours,
Greed controls Gluttony, You must have food,
Greed controls Wrath, You must be mad,
Greed controls Sloth, You must be about you,

Greed is the have it all feeling,
Even if you can't even use it all,
Greed is normally associated with money,
But it can be other things,

The man of Pride was killed when the,
Man of Greed wanted his belongings,
The man of Greed wanted all his money,
Millions if not billions had Pride,

Greed would swim in his massive money collection,
Only to find that it doesn't bring true happiness,
Money un-used when others could clearly use it,
Donating would be fictional,

Greed had once used up all of the lands resources,
In the process of making his money storage,
Leaving others without homes,
Food or protection,

Greed doesn't care about others,
Greed is a friend of war,
The rich get richer,
The poor become lowly,

Greed doesn't relise the revamp it needs,
Greed doesn't relise its weakness,
Greeds death,
Would and could only be made by Envy.

My Petty Greed

People with petty greed ~ how much do they get
Not all people have big-sized greeds
We very ordinary
bunch of people with petty greed
Don't even have courage to feel big-sized greed

My petty greed has often been met
by petty donors
Twice or so I was saved
by the God on my shelf
After safe escape I gave a smirk

Indulged a bit in intellectual conceit Ah
Escaped narrowly honour is saved
Yet my petty greed was not quenched
Even now I make rounds to petty donors
Ah they too are small-time people
They too live within limits
How can they give their all
Even if they give do I have the guts
to pull all up to the roots.

Can people with petty greed geta full amount
Very ordinary person I
pulled by petty greed
Ever go round and round
Come back home take bath daily
Light the lamp on my shelf
God keep saving me
Very ordinary person, me
haven't even got the courage
to feel big-sized greed.

Greed

Where there is a need
There is always greed
A rotten exploiting deed
That manifests with speed

When there are mouths to feed
Read between the lines and take heed!
Lurking around is an Inspiring greed
Ready to take advantage and proceed

Even when there is no need to succeed
By now it is agreed, there is always greed
Our desire for more always exceeds our needs
Hence wealth, power and greed have always been married

We always want more
Sometimes I don't know what for
I read to understand what generation of breed
Has given birth to this senseless weed
Because life is a circle of endless greed

I urgently need to know, I plead
Who planted this seed of greed to deliberately mislead?
