Money The Enemy



Despise the money,
for all the use,
to empower all the dummies,
but not I, nor you,
the desire over the sea power,
all so crummy,
choosing the money,
over the beauty,
within the sea showers,
and the bed of flowers,
all that blood money,
shall not empower,
all so funny,
full of dummies,
to fall for that crummy money.
