Thoughtless uptight people
Who wander through life
Grabbing everything
And anything
They want without a care
For others needs
Selfish and obnoxious
Not willing to share
Land, crops, or wealth
They make me woozy
That they cannot see
We are all part
Of the bigger picture
All of us connected
To mother earth
If we are fortunate
Let us truly share
One planet, one earth
For all

It's hard to push against a billion of so greedy people. Sadly our success as a creature has its drawbacks for we are adept at turning on our own kind for selfish reasons...particularly those in power.
