Money snitches the mind;
So pure as water and honey;
Walked on earth in a snazzy style;
Sneaks in the heart, full of love and compassion.
Starts to grumble in a gruesome way for others;
Steps up the ladder in a grungy way;
Nothing eternal he feels inside;
The wave of eulogy evaded on his way.
Took all Evanescent pleasures;
Moved all around etching ethos of war;
Once, shimmered his mind of dirt;
Money falls all way on the earth.
Sit alone shilly-shally;
Shelf of books opened nearby;
Shocked looking the page once read;
Never remembered a line, in the mind.
Looked in the rare-mirror a while;
Saw the shinning sun far behind;
Turned around at once;
Moved towards the light so pure.
