The desire in man grows horizontally.
The greed in him sp
urts vertically.
With the desire and greed together he looks tall
unaware of the moment he is going to fall.

Fund Raising
Raising funds for a cause
seems to be an easy task
it raises numerous doubts
being deliberated for honesty
being thought over for sincerity
as many recently go by a proposition
where faith and trust deviate
where greed and fake unite
putting to test the patronage
complicating the ideals to a demurrage
as many funds have gone out of context
spent not for the purpose in text
a shadowy event plays at the back
throwing the intention on the rock.

Nature At Risk
Mountains are in crumbles
Oceans are up in trembles.
Land has become a gamble.
Rivers are in shambles
The land which grew grains
looks a desert without rains.
Hills which appeared magnificent
have lost their translucent.
The Seas which were soft
have risen up to great lofts.
The rivers’ were transparent
now express shabbiness apparent.
The cause for such situation
be found in the enunciation
where man’s greed is manifested
with every other resource being inflicted.

Claim The Wisdom
Thinking of this world and its people
gives me a feeling sad and painful.
Not knowing how to claim the wisdom
that has carried us all through the times
I sit back looking aghast of the great fall
The society not of any particular region
but consisting of the whole world in session
passes through a catastrophic involvement
stripping all of us of our achievements
suppressing us to a state of depression
indicating an expensive repercussions.
The world as it appears now and would in future
has been saddled by vices of alarming stature
that greed and deceit take us all over
pressing us to push the qualities lower
that of give and take, forget and forgive
modesty and moderation have lost their drive
while publicity and self trumpeting overwhelm
allowing the top people in the realm
perform with expensive and exalting acquisitions
making the world a place of 
irrelevant habitation
where there is no peace and tranquillity
but where prevails money and infidelity

The Greedy Duo
Nothing great is to happen.
Nothing much is going to transpire
Nothing more is seen to transcribe.
Nothing else is left to translate
Nothing to be transformed
as everything has been robbed
Everything has been stolen.
Everything has been taken away.
Leaving nothing in reality
and also nothing being
left in books.
Even after they contest and confront
wanting to take away the piece of cloth left.

Tale of Greed.
Greed takes you to places
long away and not imaginable.
With the greed overwhelming
you would find yourself
in a place of fortune where everything
is fantastic and fastidious all in a bloom
wallowing in wealth while swallowing other peoples money.
This being one part of the game
when greed surpasses and surmounts
it would take you to a place least thought of
least interested in and more or less a place
which hosts disdain and terror in a mix
where corrupt and criminal get in
where robbers and murderers join hands
and where the hands are cuffed
where you have to put up with
immeasurable rudeness and unfathomable hardships
sentenced to jail waiting in tenseion
for your lawyer to come and take you in bail.
Really do you need to possess such a quality?
Think before you desire.

A Vanquish
Let me tell you
that there is going
to be a happy event
that of a victory
of man over his greed
in a short while as of now
he is going to conquer it
by his wisdom and control
aiming to become a human
once again with a chest full
of sympathy and understanding.
Do not have your fingers crossed
as if it is not going to happen
since two minds would bring a fallout
as this is the most important attempt
for mankind even glorious
than man stepping on the moon
for this vanquish would be recorded in
red in the annals of history
as a day of Contentment
while we celebrate days for fathers,
mothers, love, independence and
what ever comes across in our life
this would stand tall dwarfing
all other days in relevance and spirit.
A man of no stature
Short and thin with distorted feature
twisted hands and treble voice
bass, medium, and high pitch all choice
at the same time in a discordant tone.
Talking or shouting know not what it is.
making funny movements like a croak
shaking his neck on and off and
gesticulating peculiarly with his hands.
as though drawing figures in the air.
No matter what he looks in person
as looks are not his treason
but got from his birth in a fashion
something linked to his genetic order
or else to the disorders or deformities that border.
That which contributes much
are his callous objectives as such
greed and self-conceit in straight
audacious talk and manners as traits
respecting none and cheating
depriving the rights of his sibling .
that prompted me to draw a realistic
analogue to his mannerism in a short pack up
by highlighting his appearance in the backdrop
A sparrow sitting on a bough
singing merrily high above
came down in a speedy flight
seeing a morsel of bread on sight
a big fluffy cat came chasing
as the little sparrow was descending
forcing the bird to a hasty retreat
as the cat wanted to have the entire treat
The morsel was in fragments small
not enough for the cat’s call
but adequate for the sparrow
Cats are known for their stealth and sly
as greed always has its way
the cat got nothing out of its try
but successfully made the little bird fly.
Two little girls collected the coconuts from their farm.
Putting them in baskets they set up a shop.
The shop aligned itself to the wayside form.
Both of them took their chair in a hop.
The older one adjusting her glasses looked around.
Seeing no prospective buyers in the vicinity.
She thought of many strategies totally sound.
She and her cousin went over and over the schemes
in entity.
In a short while they came up with a proposal.
The six-year-old displayed a big board
which read “buy two one free for quick disposal”.
Then on there was a rapid flow of people from the road.
The coconuts were bought in great speed.
The girls made very good money.
The transactions showed no greed
as they were handled by ones tiny.
The older one kept the money safely in a box.
The younger one diligently counted the unsold.
The shop of the little ones became the town’s talk
The enterprising spirit of the girls gradually unfolds.
