Greed

Greed is all you seek
Not wisdom or guides or wives
Just greed?
Money you say makes the world go 'round
It does not
Your scheme will not work on me
For I have seen many come and go
Greed was all they seek
Riches and money and power
They all died in the cavern
The cavern of gold
The cavern of fond held riches beyond belief
But it could es their mind and they fell in
Without a way to get it
There is one way of safety
A passage of mine
Cross the river 3 times
Give the snail an old key
And then bow down to me
For I am the keeper
The keeper of the cavern
Waiting for those whom came to seek
Seek not for greed but to help those
Who are weak and fell to those
Those who seek for control over others
Then they must die
But until the day when those who come
Pure hearts as one
One who seeks
And one who takes
Take a peak into dismay
To seek for good and take for the better
The welfare of others comes before them
You are them and neither of they
For they have come already today
