selfishness and greed

if we don't deal with that situation

within our selves

we and our little world

will probably not survive


that is what i see


we are so selfish

and want is our most popular god

and our own gratification

is our most popular goal

which i have learned about in my own way


if god is all that is

which is the only way that word works for me

we ain't treating all that is all that well


to send a man or woman to prison

is to send god to prison

and to abuse a child is to abuse god

and to seek only for our personal self

is to ignore god


and we are so lonely


love is an expression of sharing and respect of all that is


our prayers are so full of what we want

and so rarely what we offer freely
