Money


It makes things only far more complicated,

and true values become separated.

When everything is for sale,

it has its great utopian stories to tell.

Until the counted counts and the counts are counted,

the damage is amounted.

The one who has little and wants less is contented richer,

then the one that has much wants more, is more bitter.

Spending money before one has it in haste,

stolen future with borrowed money its a slaving taste.

Master of thief’s, criminal greed’s and excellent host,

how much are ones worth, if one have it all lost.

God gives those inferior weak some money,

that they feel more superior and funny.

Then all it does is getting some more attention,

the expensive way to be of mention.

Solution become the question of how much,

loosing all intellectual and wisdom touch.

The currency from the garden at home is health,

providing the ultimate joy of wealth.

https://robertrittel.blogspot.com Living virtualistic through myself. The road I wanted to follow choose me and I can see the cosmos to know itself. I remember only moments where my actions manifested the belief of my passion, choosing my next universe through what I have learned in this one. My fears got lost in dreams, sensing what needed to be done with no thinking. I believe in fairy tales, especially with dragons and how to tame them. I do not need any strange faith to worship that celestial brilliance. Dismissing everything what insults my soul and faithful in those small things, because it is in them where our strength is.
