Money is the root of all evil

~Money is the root of evil~

He is the Devil's tool,
Like when Eve was fooled
purchasing Death with an apple,
and breaking ground for thorns
and thirstles
He is an empty space
in the heart of Judas Iscariot,
whose longing will never be
           satisfied.


He holds grudge against
peace and love,
but yet promises Heaven and Earth;
He speaks of himself as the greatest treasure.
In his bosom is an abyss of
pleasure,
can you decipher his cunning
desires?

He led Joseph into slavery,
Sending the Israelites into
       captivity
like a bird trapped in a cage.
He is a wolf in lamb's skin,
whose embrace is a snare of
brokenness and pain.

A Delilah of corruption and
frustration,
whose kiss breaks down
even the palace of
King Solomon.

-Gabriel T. Saah
