Golden Touched


"Rich and Greedy," They say.

"Foolish," They say.

"Golden touched," They say. 

"Cursed forever," They say.

Greed corrupted him. 

Wishes sometimes turn into curses.

Don't be deceived by beauty. 

He turned her into gold. 

"Aurelia, so caring and loving," They say. 

He cried out to Dionyssus and made a river full of gold. 

 

 

"Aurelia, so caring and loving," They say.
