Greed makes me so sad

It doesn’t make sense to me

If I had unlimited funds I would only live the same way I do now

Maybe I’d buy books and video games

But I wouldn’t buy all of them and then sell them back at twice the price

I only want as much as I need to be content

Why does anyone need more?

If we all only took what we needed

Even if we took just a little bit more than we needed

But taking everything just doesn’t make sense

Why would you not leave some for someone else?

Don’t you think that’s how we came together?

Why we started living in groups with complex relationships

I wish that greed was treated like a crime

Something one could be punished for

No we don’t care if you take a second helping,

Don’t take all of it

I wonder if there is something broken in the heads of those that have?

Did something go wrong with the wiring?

Why take all of it?

You can’t possibly use it

Just stop being so greedy.
